Four out of five households in Lebanon cannot afford the bare essentials. Due to the conflict layered on a long-standing economic crisis, children are increasingly undernourished, missing school, and forced to work. “I wanted to buy clothes for my children, but I couldn’t. I wanted to enroll them in school, but there wasn’t enough money for that either,” said a father of four children, whose words are cited by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
