Beirut Relief
Two huge explosions on Tuesday, August 4, 2020 killed more than 130 people and injured around 5,000 in Beirut, Lebanon.
The Lebanese government has declared a two-week state of emergency. Rescuers continue to search for survivors, and hospitals—some of which were damaged in the blasts—struggle to help the injured. Officials blamed the blasts on a build-up of a fertilizer chemical inside a warehouse in the capital.
Our family in Lebanon is working to provide immediate food, shelter, and funds to rebuild homes to the people of Beirut. 100% of the profits from this little book will directly help survivors of the Beirut explosion.
We wanted to get relief funds to the people of Beirut as quickly as possible. In exchange for your purchase, we promise you a colorful, playful book, printed in Los Angeles by Sorella Studios and El Sereno Graphics.
