NEAR EAST

CRISIS DEEPENS

A small country, roughly 2/3 the size of Connecticut, Lebanon’s future remains in peril. A gateway to neighboring
Syria, Lebanon is not only a crucial trading partner and an important source for humanitarian aid, but a beacon of
education. Activity between these two countries has been limited by sanctions which tend to the economic and
political fragility of the region. Newspaper headlines forecast structural systems (on numerous planes), are on the
verge of collapsing -fuel and water shortages, power outages, lack of access to critically needed medicine, and the
list continues…
AMAA continues to answer the call, but only with YOUR help! The impact of funds received will provide, actual and
not just symbolic, relief, spiritual nourishment, educational support, physical sustenance, health care, social and
