We all watched in horror as a port hangar exploded on August 4th, resulting in over 135 deaths and 5,000 injuries to date. Sadly, the explosion was in close proximity to heavily Armenian-populated towns, including Bourj Hammoud, Khalil Badawi, Hadjin, Mar Mikhael, Achrafieh, Antelias and Beirut, resulting so far in a count of 11 community deaths and over 250 injuries.

Now is the time to give back to a community which has historically – and until the recent disaster – stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the Motherland, Artsakh and Diasporan communities.
