BEIT EL BARAKA USA

Beit el Baraka is a Lebanon-based charity with a US branch and a 501(c)3 status. Our task consists of a support program that assists Lebanese retirees and children living in strong financial distress. With a mission of ensuring respect, support, and dignity, we grant them access to our 4 services:

healthy food, decent livelihood, medical services, and education.

Born in a country where government support fails to address the alarming fall into poverty of a disappearing middle class, our vision aspires to a Lebanon where families can live a secure, valued and respectable life with access to social security, education, and retirement pensions for all, without having to rely on charity. We are very careful about who we help and how we help them. We want to protect our dynamic socio-economic model, and set the ground for a new form of governance that will resume our transitory work.

To date, our database of beneficiaries comprises 226,000 people from the most vulnerable segment of our society: elderly and children.
