okay not to be a downer but petitions wonât do anything for lebanon, reading a carrd by a westerner who has literally no clue what is going on apart from what the western media has told them wonât do anything for lebanon so itâs better if you read what an actual lebanese person has to say (their views on current political parties do not reflect every person from lebanonâs views, but at least it isnât feeding into us imperialistic propaganda). signing petitions isnât helping. please donate. this twitter thread explains why USD donations are important in this situation and provides links to many gofundmeâs / other methods of donating. one of them leads to the Lebanese Red Cross app, and this explains in more detail on how you can donate. it isnât a government organization, and according to people in the replies, the red cross is the best option and though the red cross in other countries have a bad reputation, this is apparently not associated with any other foundation. donating to individual people in lebanon might not work because their currency has been losing its value over the past couple months, so the best option is donate to organizations like Global Impact and the Red Cross, food banks, and gofundmes where the person will make sure the money is converted themselves (not through the website), also i would considering checking this account, they are part of an independently owned Lebanese media/news site and is actively updating their account / setting up new fundraisers and providing resources. make sure to check who you are donating to, you donât have to donate to EVERYTHING you see but if you actually want to help, do not just sign petitions. donate to people or at least get others to donate if you currently donât have the means to do so.
