Over 300,000 people were left homeless and more than 6,000 people injured after a massive explosion erupted in central Beirut. Buildings have turned to rubble, hospitals are destroyed and patients have been left to suffer, all during a time when COVID-19 cases have surged.

The situation in hospitals is catastrophic and health care systems are stretched beyond their capacity. The people of Lebanon are in desperate need of help. Partner with HPIC right now and provide essential health services to children, women and families. When you make a financial donation, you will help HPIC expedite emergency shipments of medicine and medical supplies.

Lebanon is in crisis and HPIC is responding with shipments of up to $1 million worth of medicine. Over $820,000 worth of antibiotics, analgesics, and medicine for respiratory and cardiovascular diseases have already been shipped through HPIC and received by partners in Lebanon. Thank you to health care industry leaders, donors and partners for stepping in and responding right away. Continued shipments are planned. Product and financial donations are still needed and will allow HPIC to continue to respond.
