Xylem Watermark Match to Support the Water Crisis in Lebanon

by UNICEF USA

The multiple crises facing Lebanon – economic collapse, the COVID-19 pandemic, the Beirut explosion and the protracted refugee crisis – have thrust the country into uncertainty.

Vulnerabilities have significantly increased among all populations, impacting children’s basic rights and physical and mental well-being. An estimated 1.6 million people, including 541,000 vulnerable children, are facing multiple deprivations.

UNICEF requires US$94 million to support its program to increase access to basic social services, including comprehensive primary health care, safe drinking water, sanitation, child protection services, and quality education and training for children and young people.

Since October 2020, to avoid the complete collapse of Water Establishments as a result of the economic crisis, UNICEF has supported Lebanon’s four public water establishments with supplies, consumables, and quick repairs to secure water services to more than four million people. With our partners support, we’ve reached: More than 184,690 people with critical WASH supplies, including hygiene items and services; Almost 200,000 people with temporary access to an adequate quantity of safe water for drinking and water for domestic use; And provided nearly 200,000 people with access to improved safe sanitation in temporary locations.

With your help, we can do so much more.

Please consider donating to support UNICEF’s emergency response in Lebanon. Your donation will be matched dollar for dollar by Xylem Watermark.
