ANERA | American Near East Refugee Aid

Since 1968, Anera has helped refugees and others hurt by conflicts in Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan live with purpose and hope.

Anera, which has no political or religious affiliation, works on the ground with partners in Palestine (West Bank and Gaza), Lebanon and Jordan. We mobilize resources for immediate emergency relief and for sustainable, long-term health, education, and economic development. Our staff serve in their communities, navigating the politics that constrict progress to get help where it’s needed most.

That’s how Anera received more than $112 million in support of programs in 2021 alone, and it’s how we will keep building better lives until hope finds its way in the Middle East.

Vision

Anera envisions a Middle East where people live with dignity, purpose, and opportunity.

Mission

Anera provides humanitarian assistance and sustainable development to advance the well-being of refugees and other vulnerable communities in Palestine, Lebanon, and Jordan.
