How to Keep Lebanese Children Warm This Winter: A Giving Guide
Winter warmth is an urgent need
Winter in Lebanon can turn everyday homes into dangerously cold spaces. Yalla Nour's Warmth for Winter campaign responds to the combined pressure of high fuel costs, economic hardship, and power cuts that leave vulnerable households without reliable heat.

For children and older relatives, cold nights are more than an inconvenience. The campaign is designed to help families create safer, warmer living spaces during the season when heating can be out of reach.
