Life at Caritas Lebanon

Caritas Lebanon premiering

Caritas Lebanon organized on Thursday 22 April 2010 a meeting for some NGOs that took place in its head office in Sin el Fil.

In reference to Article 2 of its bylaws, Caritas Lebanon works at “establishing contacts with Government Agencies, Non-Governmental Organizations as well as social welfare associations from all religious denominations in Lebanon. Caritas Lebanon also acts as the coordinator between these institutions and the Catholic Church’s institutions”.  ../pictures/جانب من الحضور.jpg

The purpose of this meeting was to initiate a partnership between participating NGOs in order to improve services provided to disfavored people, hoping that this network could, later on, bring in other NGOs in Lebanon. In turn, representatives of the Lebanese Red Cross, the Pontifical Mission, the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul, the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA), Catholic Relief Services (CRS), World Vision and Caritas Lebanon presented the objectives of their association, its programs and its projects.

Hoping that such meetings would lead to more elaborated partnership in favor of the needy people!
