How It Works

Disbursement to grantees will be conditional to the completion of a screening done by MFIs and Kafalat to assess their recovery needs based on the assessments of damages status conducted by the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) immediately following the blast, and to ensure that the same expense is not financed from different sources.

Applications should enclose all the below listed documents. Any delay in providing the required documents will result in delays in the review and selection process.
