MIDDLE EAST CRISIS

Lutheran Disaster Response is working with our companions on the ground, including the Middle East Council of Churches, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land and the Lutheran World Federation, to provide critical assistance for those affected by the conflict, including: 

  • Emergency food and water: Ensuring basic needs are met for those displaced and vulnerable. 
  • Shelter and essential supplies: Offering a safe haven and providing blankets, hygiene kits, and other necessities. 
  • Trauma-informed care: Helping individuals and families cope with the emotional and psychological impact of conflict. 
  • Long-term recovery efforts: Supporting communities when the time comes to rebuild and recover, promoting sustainable solutions for a brighter future. 

Gifts to Lutheran Disaster Response equip us to respond to this and other disasters, whenever and wherever they strike. Gifts designated for “Middle East Crisis” will be restricted to and used in full (100%) for those affected by disasters in the region.
