HELP US GET BACK ON OUR FEET
For 5 years, we have ran this rescue mission with so much passion, love, pouring our soul and heart into it❤️ We have successfully rescued, rehabilitated and rehomed over 100 dogs abroad, in different parts of the world and currently have 136 rescues, 80 of them are dogs and 56 of them are cats, between these babies, there’s the 2 legged dogs, blind dogs and cats, handicapped, sick, seniors, cancer patients etc.. Unfortunately it’s been months now and we have been severely affected by the conflict, leading us to lose 99% of our supporters. This had led us to become in debt, and with every month, we sank more and more💔 Currently we owe over 16,423$ just in boarding fees, food fees, pet taxi fees, vet fees, medicine, medical food etc… With the situation worsening, more people started dumping their dogs and cats, we started seeing more abuse and more critical cases, like paralyzed dogs and cats, shot etc… leading to us to take over too many cats and dogs in a short amount of time. We are now reaching out to our community so we can reach our goal to cover our fees until End of September. This goal would be easily reachable if everyone that sees it, donates as little as 1$. YES 1$ will change our fate. As of today, we are unfortunately officially closing our doors to all new intakes. This decision was not taken lightly, it is with a heartbroken heart, a sore heart and endless tears💔 so many animals need us but the financial constraint is stopping us. Please consider donating and sharing

Celebrating 50 and Giving Back

Celebrating 50 and Giving Back
As I celebrate my 50th birthday and cherish the precious moments with my beloved family and friends, I feel truly blessed. I've always believed that true happiness comes from giving rather than receiving. Having you as a close friend is the greatest blessing and gift I could ask for. If you feel compelled to offer something for my 50th celebration, please consider contributing to the campaign below, which supports education in my village by assisting with tuition fees and providing essential financial aid to our local school. Fayçal EL DARWICHE WHY DONATE? The goal of this fundraising campaign is to support the education system in the village of Zefta, Lebanon, as part of the El-Darwiche Foundation for Heritage and Development's initiatives. The funds raised will be matched by the EL DARWICHE family and managed by the foundation to maximize impact, particularly in enhancing the inclusion of vulnerable populations in the education system. EL-DARWICHE FOUNDATION FOR HERITAGE AND DEVELOPMENT / DAR ZEFTA FOUNDATION OVERVIEW: “El-Darwiche Foundation for Heritage and Development” or “Dar Zefta Foundation” was established in 2017 with a purpose to accelerate social and economic development in the village of Zefta and its surroundings. The aim is to turn Zefta into a role model village that reinvented itself and repowered its economy by tapping into its local heritage, nurturing local produce, and developing local tourism. Over the years, the family preserved Dar Zefta, its 100+ year Ottoman house, considered as one of the jewels of heritage in South of Lebanon. Investments over the years in the house and its surrounding contributed to the local economy, preserved the village’s social memories, and helped put Zefta on the local tourism map. Today, and despite current challenges and security situation, Dar Zefta is much more than a guest house, it is a social movement that preserves the Dar heritage and supports local social and economic development. ACHIEVEMENTS TO DATE: Since its establishment, the Foundation has completed several important projects: 1. Operation of Dar Zefta as a guest house, with the purpose of attracting visitors and putting South Lebanon on the tourism map, the region becomes an all-year long destination with its enjoyable weather and its stunning natural resources. The project currently employs a dynamic team of 10 direct employees, in addition to another 25 part-time employees. Despite current challenges and war, Dar Zefta remains committed to its employees and its local development targets 2. Launch of La Route des Arts, an itinerary of 18 diverse artists from the South, with most having their ateliers locally. The project offers the opportunity to visit these ateliers, get to know the artists personally and discover their work and their inspiring stories 3. Supporting the Education system in the village, by paying tuition fees and providing the local school with much needed financial support for its normal operations. 4. Beautification of the village: Uplifting the plaza of the village, with 1200 sqm of basalt stone pavement, and the planting of 600 plants and trees including cypress, orange, pine, bougainvillea, jacaranda, and laurel trees. Build-up of retaining walls with local white stone, leveraging local artisans, across the surrounding of Dar Zefta. Early 2000, the family dedicated a parcel for the creation of a public garden (1,200 sqm) and a multi-purpose space for public use (100 sqm for art performances, community events, sports activities, etc.). 5. Acquisition and refurbishment of an Ambulance for Zefta and its surrounding (the nearest cities of Saida and Nabatieh are 15 km away each) 6. Coaching and financial support to the local community, in the fields of media, tourism, healthcare, education, and entrepreneurship THE FOUNDATION ASPIRATIONS: Dar Zefta Foundation seeks to launch key initiatives that resonate with its vision to preserve the heritage and culture of the region. As Dar Zefta Foundation operates at the intersection of culture, arts, and local development, its endeavors can be broadly classified under three categories: a) Cultural Heritage Revival - Jabal Amel Discovery Trails - Rotating Cultural Exhibitions & Heritage Site Revitalization - Virtual Jabal Amel Experience b) Creative Community Development - Set-up Art Residency Programs - Showcasing Artistic Expression - Crafts Masterclass Series - Heritage Craft Marketplace - Digital Arts Archive - Local Development and Beautification c) Community Greening Initiatives - Elevating Pedestrian Areas - Revitalizing Traditional Architecture - Artistic Havens in Public Spaces - Supporting Education and Capacity Building THE TEAM • Bahjat El-Darwiche – Bahjat is partner with PwC Strategy&, leading the Telecom, Media, and Technology practice for Europe, Middle East and North Africa.

In support of the Anti Racism Movement
In support of the Anti Racism Movement
About ARM Anti-Racism Movement (ARM) organizes alongside migrant workers, including women domestic workers, living and working under the oppressive Kafala system. We work with migrant-led collectives to support their community organizing, collective action, self-advocacy and activism against systemic racism and injustice. ARM’ main pillars of work include community building through our Migrant Community Center (MCC); working on advocacy, research, campaigning, supporting grassroots initiative building; and through offering legal counseling and casework. Current Context ARM has been dealing with various layers of crisis over the past year as a result of the ongoing Israeli Genocide in Palestine, with a slow escalation of aggressions in Lebanon, causing displacement and death over the past year. On the 23rd of September, starting with an Israeli attack that exploded communication devices across multiple regions in the country, we have been seeing unprecedented escalation. This has expanded into daily raids across the country including in Beirut, killing hundreds of people and injuring thousands more. Mass displacement from the South of Lebanon is causing chaos and overwhelming most available services. We’re already hearing stories of migrant workers in need of shelter, food, transportation and evacuation support. Expected Challenges and Emergency Response For migrant communities, an already extremely precarious status in the country is now much more worrying due to the obvious racism in national response plans which often completely ignore the existence of migrant workers altogether, do not account for the barriers to access in mainstream humanitarian responses or offer any protection mechanisms. Expected challenges for the coming period, based on learnings from previous crises include eviction threats, lack of access to information, abandonment and increased violence from employers, and challenges in finding inclusive shelters. ARM is already seeing an increased demand on our casework services, a dire need for advocacy and campaigning to push for the inclusion of migrant workers in response plans, and varying needs from our community center members that will require us to adjust our every day work and response mechanisms. Supporting ARM’s work is now more crucial than ever. You can read more about ARM’s story and values below, and you can check out the highlights of our work over the past year by reading our 2023 Annual Report here: https://armlebanon.org/annual-report-2023/ Our Story ARM was launched in 2010 as a grassroots collective by young Lebanese feminist activists in collaboration with migrant workers and migrant domestic workers following a racist incident at one of Beirut’s most well-known private beach resorts. ARM activists, using a hidden camera, filmed the administration’s blatant acts of discrimination and segregation. Interest grew in this small volunteer-based movement, members increased, and our interventions grew in scope and scale. Later this year, ARM opened its first MCC and soon after, in 2012, registered officially as an NGO in Lebanon, with a growing staff team in order to increase its capacity to carry out wider operations to fight racist discrimination, abuse and exploitation in Lebanon. ARM works to achieve social, economic and gender justice for all migrant workers and racialized groups in Lebanon. We recognize the significance of self-organizing and actively support Migrant Domestic Worker leadership in rights activism. A primary focus of ARM is women migrant domestic workers living and working under the oppressive Kafala System, which is used to recruit and hire foreign labor in Lebanon, Jordan and the Gulf states. Our Values We adopt a feminist ethics of care in our work, where we value attentiveness, responsibility, responsiveness, and compassion. We also privilege the voices of migrant workers in every aspect of our work. We use a social justice framework as the basis for our approach, upholding fundamental human rights for everyone in our communities. We value the expression and practice of solidarity among all marginalized communities as a necessary alliance against oppressive and unjust systems. We view our everyday work as political and always seek to address the larger social, economic, cultural and policy structures that enable discrimination, abuse, and rights violations. We value the importance of building safe and strong communities that sustain the activism and offer supportive social networks for migrants and their allies.

Ecole du Saint Enfant Jésus - Besançon Baabdath
Ecole du Saint Enfant Jésus - Besançon Baabdath
Notre école, École du Saint Enfant Jésus - Besançon Baabdath, est un établissement catholique, francophone, qui appartient à la Congrégation des Sœurs de la Charité de Sainte Jeanne-Antide Thouret (Besançon). Notre école est une ONG qui compte environ 700 élèves, encadrés par près de 70 enseignants et membres du personnel administratif. C’est un lieu qui offre un espace d’apprentissage dans un climat positif, et dont le but est de répandre le savoir, de développer le savoir-faire, et de cultiver le savoir – être, le tout dans le rayonnement de la charité et du Charisme de sa fondatrice. Dotée d’un historique riche et fécond, notre école est ancrée dans l’histoire de Baabdath et a su manifestement évoluer au fil des années. Depuis 1906 et jusqu’à nos jours, elle accueille les élèves, les « trésors » comme les appelle Ste Jeanne-Antide, de la maternelle jusqu’aux classes terminales. Filles et garçons sont formés aux valeurs humaines, spirituelles, sociales et religieuses. Ils suivent le programme libanais, bénéficient d’un enseignement trilingue à partir de la Petite Section, et tirent profit de l’enseignement des nouvelles technologies sans pour autant négliger le sport et les arts qu’ils pratiquent au quotidien. À l’école du Saint Enfant Jésus – Besançon Baabdath, nous veillons à garder un esprit évangélique marqué par la joie d’apprendre, de découvrir, et de développer la créativité et les activités pour que chaque élève puisse faire fructifier au mieux son potentiel et ses dons. Par-dessus tout, nos élèves appartiennent à une grande famille qui les aide à s’épanouir et surtout à vivre. Or, depuis octobre 2019, notre école, tout comme notre pays, vit au rythme des crises. Nous nous trouvons dans l’incapacité de pourvoir aux besoins croissants du fonctionnement de l’établissement, d’alléger le fardeau qui pèse sur les parents des élèves d’une part, et de continuer à respecter nos engagements vis-à-vis du personnel éducatif qui s’investit à merveille dans l’enseignement à distance d’autre part. En effet, dans cette situation inédite que traverse le Liban, 50% des parents de nos élèves deviennent chômeurs, ou mi- chômeurs avec un demi- traitement, et se trouvent dans l’impossibilité de verser la totalité de l’écolage. C’est pour ces raisons-ci que notre école se tourne vers les amis et les bienfaiteurs, pour solliciter leur solidarité de façon à poursuivre ensemble la mission d’éducation qui est celle de Besançon-Baabdath et que le flambeau de la connaissance, de la vie et de la foi continue à éclairer les yeux de nos élèves, de tous nos élèves sans exception. Une vidéo qui présente l’école avant le Covid-19 est disponible sur le lien suivant : https://youtu.be/O3I0_OFoP-I -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our school, Saint Enfant Jésus - Besançon Baabdath, is a Catholic, French-speaking school, which belongs to the Congregation of the Sisters of Charity of Saint Jeanne-Antide Thouret (Besançon). It is an NGO that counts around 700 students, guided by 70 teachers and administrative staff approximately. The school is a place that offers a learning environment in a positive climate. It aims at spreading knowledge, developing the know-how and encouraging life skills under the influence of charity and the charisma of its founder. The rich and fruitful history of our school is deeply rooted in the history of Baabdath and it has visibly evolved through the years. Since 1906 to this day, it has welcomed students, « treasures » as St Jeanne Antide calls them, who fill the classes from Kindergarten to the senior classes. Boys and girls are acquainted with human, spiritual, social and religious values. They follow the Lebanese programme, benefit from a trilingual education since KG1, and take advantage of the instruction of the new technologies, not to mention all kinds of sports and arts they practice on a regular basis. At Saint Enfant Jésus - Besançon Baabdath, we remain vigilant in maintaining an evangelical spirit, characterised by the joy of learning, discovering, and developing creativity and activities, so each student can best grow and further his potential and his skills. Above all, our students belong to one big family that helps them flourish, and most of all, live. However, since 2019, our school, just like our country, has been living by the rhythm of the different crises. We find ourselves unable to provide for the growing needs that the running of the school requires, lighten the load on the parents’ shoulders on the one hand, and fulfil our commitments towards the teaching staff, who are doing wonders in distance learning, on the other hand. Actually, in this unprecedented situation that Lebanon is going through, 50% of our students’ parents have become unemployed or are just earning half pay, which makes it impossible for them to cover their children’s school fees. Those are the reasons that drive our school to seek the help of its friends and benefactors. We appeal to their solidarity, to pursue together the educational mission of Besançon- Baabdath, so the torch of knowledge, life and faith will always light the eyes of our students, all of our students without exception. A video presenting the school before Covid-19 is available at the following link: https://youtu.be/O3I0_OFoP-I
