With 135 killed and 5,000+ injured, many are looking to help recovery efforts

Two explosions rocked Lebanon’s capital city, Beirut, last Tuesday. One of these explosions is believed to be caused by 2,700 tons of ammonium Nitrate, which was sitting in the port for years. 135+ were killed, including one American, and over 5,000 were injured, with thousands now homeless after the disaster, and with damages between $3 and $5 billion, the need for aid is dire.
