Feeding Starving Syrian Refugee Children in Beirut
Apart from their physical security, the greatest need of Syrian and other refugee children forced into Lebanon by the war next door is to eliminate malnutrition and lack of regular meals.
Yet again, the four Syrian
children have made a difference because their plight was instrumental in
establishing the NGO Meals for Syrian Refugee Children in Lebanon (MSRCL). This
initiative can be examined and joined on http://mealsforsyrianrefugeechildrenlebanon.com .

Organizing even one meal for a starving Syrian or Palestinian refugee child--or for any malnourished youngster displaced by the war in Syria isn't everything that matters right now in this region. For many of those working among them and to feed them it's the only thing that matters.
Until the precious ones can return home.
