Teach For Lebanon
Teach For Lebanon is an NGO working to ensure that all children in Lebanon, regardless of socioeconomic background, have access to a quality education. As an organization, we staunchly believe that quality education is not just a simple human right but it is also a weapon to reinforce tolerance, critical thinking, and social cohesion, which leads to a more prosperous, democratic, and sustainable world. Thus, providing quality education, psychological support, and reintegration of vulnerable children is what we work relentlessly for. The model of Teach For Lebanon is an education innovation that focuses on youth capacity building to provide quality intervention and systemic support for students. TFL employs and trains the nation’s top-notch graduates, “TFL Fellows”, and places them in schools serving underprivileged refugee and Lebanese children. The Fellows receive on-going training and support to address educational disadvantages by- Providing transformational teaching that places their students on a path of academic success- Expanding their students’ horizons and visions to help them realize their full potential- Working with the students, schools and local community to alter mindsets through example and advocacy- Developing extracurricular activities, providing workshops, and community based projects for students families and community leaders. Fellows work in orphanages, semi-free schools and public schools, in formal and non-formal education, covering both the first and second shift program to ensure quality services to underprivileged children. Fellows also provide psycho-social support to their students through recreational activities and psycho-educative interventions in teaching. This serves as an effective solution that will help children overcome psychological struggles, and in turn unleash their full potential in their learning, cognition, and emotional regulation, hence, leading to better academic performances.

Our aim is to provide accessible, holistic solutions that empower and build the capacity of marginalized communities, by utilizing our community centers to serve as focal points for the local neighborhood, and by transferring the knowledge to the affected communities, where B&Z believes that vulnerable people should have the power, knowledge, and ownership to lead their chosen dignified lives. Our varied programs utilize an approach that upholds human dignity, and reduces the need to navigate through a complex international humanitarian system to meet basic needs. Thus the programs are aimed at building and developing skills, enhancing psychological well being, and building individual and communal capacity in order to increase the agency and independence of those who have been marginalized.

Mosan Center For Special Needs
Mosan Center is a special education facility in Lebanon that was established in 1993 by the Rural Development Association, a non-governmental organization (NGO). In May 2015, Mosan Center became an independent entity registered with the national authority and licensed by the Interior Ministry according to Authorization No. Since its inception, Mosan Center has been working with children and young adults with special learning needs. Despite the disability prevalence rate in Lebanon, there is a lack of specialized centers that cater to special needs students, with physical, behavioral, and emotional problems and learning disabilities. Mosan Center, over its 20 years in operation, has tried to promote and advocate the establishment of similar institutions that can help integrate students with special needs into society, but to no avail. In part, this is due to the prevailing culture that Mosan Center is trying to alter gradually In Lebanon, people with disabilities are often neglected; it is not unheard of for children with disabilities to be hidden behind closed doors or for the parents to pretend that there is nothing wrong with their child. Mosan Center is the only institution in Tyre and its surrounding areas that provide specialized care to mentally disabled people.

Dalloul Art Foundation
The Ramzi and Saeda Dalloul Art Foundation (DAF) is a Lebanon-based arts institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing modern and contemporary Arab art. Established in 2017 by Dr Basel Dalloul, the foundation’s roots trace back to his late parents, Dr Ramzi Dalloul and Saeda al-Husseini, who started collecting art in the early 1970s. They purchased art they loved, created by artists with whom they had formed personal connections over the years. Viewing artists as “the keepers of truth and archivists of history”, they acquired a collection of nearly pieces, showcasing the diversity of modern and contemporary Arab art. The collection was initiated as “a labour of love”, which Basel has the honour of continuing. Through public programmes, exhibitions, online publications, archiving and research, the Dalloul Art Foundation aims to introduce modern and contemporary Arab art to local, regional and international audiences. The Dalloul Art Foundation has extended the accessibility of its collection and resources to regional and international audiences with the launch of dafbeirut.org. The foundation opens its doors to researchers and doctoral students, offering access to its extensive resources, collection management system, and internal research facilities to support their academic studies.

Frontier Partners International
Frontier Partners International exists to bring the message of Jesus to crisis regions where there is little or no witness. Together, we meet the basic needs of ANY person we can help - Loving & serving all genders, religions, and ethnicities. Who is FPI? FPI supports national partners by offering refreshment, tools, and encouragement, as well as resources to accomplish the mission. Currently partnering with: Warm Heart, Lebanon A local church team in Kurdistan Refuge Cities, Jordan Revival Ministry, Nepal Missions Matter, Most of Africa & a small project in Myanmar Footprints, Jordan These partners know their home countries better than we do, they speak the language fluently and understand the culture. These teams know Jesus and they know how to love others well. FPI does not dictate how to minister to those they are serving. We offer counsel when asked and partner on the ground at least three times a year, often four. How are we different? We are leaders in truly partnering with organizations serving in the field. We have few staff in the US, no office & we send more funding to the field. And.we plan to stay that way. Virtual works well for this organization. We are honest, transparent, and walk in integrity. Really. We are human and imperfect. We apologize and correct our mistakes. Transparent. We are never in competition with others. We strive to grow our mission daily, competing with "us" yesterday. Rising tides raise all boats. We walk this. You are our partner and we seek to love you well. We care about you, the person, not your wallet. We help you accomplish your God-given mission through giving, praying, volunteering, or "going".

Heartbeat - La Chaine De L'espoir
OUR MISSION Founded in 2005, Heartbeat - La Chaîne de l’Espoir is a Lebanese humanitarian association with the mission to treat children born with heart disease by providing the highest level of surgical technology and expertise available. DID YOU KNOW? • Congenital heart disease occur in 1 out of 100 newborns and are the first cause of death before the age of 1 year. If treated, 95% of the babies survive and go on to lead a normal life. • 600 babies are born each year in Lebanon with heart disease and might not see their 1st birthday. • Insurance companies rarely cover birth defects, while public organizations require the family to put up a big contribution. The financial problem becomes an obstacle to the adequate treatment of these children. OUR INTERVENTION We believe that a lack of funds should never prevent a child with heart disease from being treated properly. We operate by: • Covering all related treatment costs from the moment the child comes under our care. This includes diagnosis of the condition, treatment and follow-up. • Collaborating with dedicated specialists at Hotel-Dieu de France hospital in Lebanon to offer a full range of treatment through the highest level of surgical and medical expertise. OUR ACHIEVEMENTS Over 3,700 lives saved! We began our activity in 2005 with the treatment of 3 children with heart disease and are currently helping 300 families every year. All types of medical procedures have been performed, including open-heart surgery for complex malformations, and state of the art cardiac catheterization. MUSIC SAVES LIVES Every year, we throw a music concert that helps us raise most of our funding. The twist? Doctors and medical students perform alongside artists in front of a live audience of over people. You too can help by making a small contribution.
