Lebanon Humanitarian Relief
Letter to Clergy Concerning Funds to Lebanon
Due to the humanitarian crisis in Lebanon and the desire to help those in need, the Eparchy (Diocese) of Saint Maron of Brooklyn is now in its third week of collections. We have received over $70,000.00. However, much more is needed. Catholic churches, schools, hospitals, monasteries, clinics, and other institutions have opened their doors to refugees and to those in need.
In order to reach more Americans willing to assist us in our efforts to help the Lebanese people, The Most Reverend Gregory J. Mansour, Bishop of the Eparchy of Saint Maron of Brooklyn, in cooperation with Bishop Robert Shaheen, and the Eparchy of Our Lady of Lebanon, announces today the launching of a new web site for the Humanitarian Appeal for Lebanon online at www.careforlebanon.com .
The website is sponsored by Bishops Mansour and Shaheen in cooperation with Patriarch Sfeir’s Charities, Caritas Liban, Catholic Schools of Lebanon, and The Children of Lebanon. Anyone who donates will have their gift acknowledged for tax purposes. All donations will be forwarded to the designated charity. No monies will be kept here in the United States. Thank you.
