Providing Daily Bread Amid Economic Collapse

Standing with vulnerable families in Lebanon through dignity, nourishment, and stability.

Lebanon is facing one of the most severe economic crises in its modern history. Years of financial collapse, hyperinflation, political instability, and regional pressures have pushed millions of people into poverty โ€” including families who were once self-sufficient.

Today, access to daily bread, the most basic staple of life in Lebanon, is no longer guaranteed. For many households, bread has become a daily worry rather than a certainty.

At UMMA, our work in Lebanon focuses on bread distribution to the poor โ€” ensuring families can meet their most fundamental need with dignity and consistency.

Lebanonโ€™s Economic Crisis and Food Insecurity

Lebanonโ€™s crisis is not driven by war alone, but by economic collapse and social strain.

The country is facing:

  • Severe currency devaluation and loss of purchasing power

  • Skyrocketing food prices, including bread

  • Widespread unemployment and underemployment

  • One of the highest refugee populations per capita in the world

  • Overstretched social and humanitarian support systems

For many families, income has disappeared while prices continue to rise. Bread โ€” once affordable and accessible โ€” has become increasingly difficult to secure on a daily basis.

Why Bread Matters in Lebanon

In Lebanon, bread is not symbolic โ€” it is essential.

For families struggling to survive:

  • Bread is often the main daily food source

  • Lack of bread means immediate hunger

  • Children and elderly are the first to suffer

Food insecurity deepens rapidly without consistent access

Our Bread Distribution Program in Lebanon

UMMA delivers fresh bread directly to vulnerable families across Lebanon through structured and consistent distribution.

Daily Bread for Families in Need

We work with trusted local partners and bakeries to distribute fresh bread to households facing food insecurity, including refugees, elderly individuals, and families living below the poverty line.

Support for Vulnerable Communities

Our program prioritizes neighborhoods and communities most affected by economic hardship, where families are forced to choose between food, medicine, and rent.

Consistent and Dignified Distribution

Bread distribution is carried out regularly, ensuring families can rely on support rather than face daily uncertainty.
