The Middle East Children's Alliance (MECA) will provide emergency aid for thousands of children and women fleeing the terrible violence in Syria. Dozens of children arrive each day to already overcrowded and impoverished Palestinian Refugee Camps or informal encampments in Lebanon. Most arrive with no belongings. Some are accompanied by their mothers or elderly relatives; others arrive alone or with other children. They need everything from soap to blankets to medicine.
MECA works with local charitable organizations, clinics, and hospitals in Lebanon to find out what families need and work together with our partners to send shipments of medical supplies, hygiene kits, and more as well as providing vouchers for families to purchase food and other essentials.
