    Since the start of the Syrian crisis in 2011, the number of people living below the poverty line has soared to 66%, with an additional 170,000 Lebanese living in poverty in 2015 and an increased 20% unemployment rate according to the International Labor Organization. An estimated 350,000 Syrian refugees remain unable to meet their basic needs, while the same number of Lebanese live on less than 1 USD a day.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

    Medrar supports both Syrian refugees and marginalized Lebanese communities through the provision of food parcels and non-food items on a yearly basis in the areas of the North, Bekaa, and South Lebanon, where poverty levels stand at 38%, 36% and 32% according to UNDP\u2019s latest poverty assessment. Medrar makes it a priority to support families living in underserved remote areas that for one reason or another are unable to receive any kind of assistance.<\/p><\/div>

    The most recent large-scale distribution took place on January 28, 2019 with the support of UAE AID. Medrar delivered 1,000 food parcels to a total of 700 refugee and 300 vulnerable Lebanese families (benefiting an overall 4,500 people) residing in Sur region and its suburbs.<\/p>

    In May 2019, Medrar has distributed over 5,000 food parcels to vulnerable families from all areas throughout Lebanon.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
