Together for Lebanon – Community Iftar & Open Mic

Supporting displaced families in Lebanon

Lebanon faces an unprecedented humanitarian crisis, with tens of thousands of families displaced and lacking food, hygiene supplies, and bedding. On the front lines, We Deserve Better Foundation is on the ground delivering these essentials around the clock.

By gathering around a shared table, we can raise awareness, generate donations, and create a space where art, music, and community act as tools of resistance and hope.

Community is everything. Come to cry, to sing, to reflect, and to renew your commitment to resistance.

About We Deserve Better Foundation
