The conflict in Lebanon has created a devastating displacement crisis, and the needs of women and girls are too often forgotten.

Ever since Raba was displaced from their home in Lebanon to a shelter, she shares limited water with hundreds of people. Now, every trip to the bathroom to change her sanitary pad is a painful experience.

"Sometimes there's no water for a girl to wash and change. There's no basket in the bathroom — there's no basket for a girl to put her sanitary pad," she told Reuters.

Nearly 200,000 people like Raba now live across 1,145 collective shelters, most of which are at capacity. The numbers are growing and as winter sets in, so are the needs.

With basic hygiene supplies like menstrual products out of reach for women and girls, UNFPA is working tirelessly to make these supplies accessible for all who need them in the form of Dignity Kits.

This Giving Season, you can deliver double the impact to women and girls who have been forgotten. Will you make a 2X-matched gift to deliver Dignity Kits and lifesaving care to those who need it most around the world? [[link removed]?]

2X-MATCH: DELIVER DIGNITY KITS [[link removed]?]

“I have two teenage daughters who are now sharing a bathroom with hundreds of other people,” Alma told UNFPA. “Risks of infection are very high.”

“We fled with literally nothing with us,” Alma said. “Any feminine-hygiene product is essential at this point.”

She and her pregnant daughter-in-law both received UNFPA Dignity Kits, thanks to the support of donors like you.

We’ve already distributed 8,000 Dignity Kits in Lebanon since conflict erupted, but your support is urgently needed to reach more women and girls this winter.

Before the end of the year, will you make a 2X-matched gift to deliver double the Dignity Kits to those who need them around the world? Any amount makes a difference to those who have nothing. [[link removed]?]

We condemn the violence in Lebanon, Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel, and echo the UN Secretary-General’s call for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas. The suffering must end and peace must prevail.

Thank you for not looking away from this worsening crisis.
