With
more Lebanese in need now than ever before, we are always here to support,
starting with a hug!
At Nusaned, we focus on building self-sustained communities, while maintaining flexibility and expanding to address a variety of needs as they arise, especially in times of crisis. Reaching out to those that need it most, we guide individuals and families through the initial steps in resisting and overcoming poverty, while encouraging a culture of sharing and community support to create a long-lasting network of strength.

The economic crisis in Lebanon is worsening. Poverty is on the rise and economic inequality is worse than ever before. Hundreds of thousands of Lebanese citizens have become impoverished, adding to the 1 million (1 in 4 people) estimated to already be living under the poverty line. These communities are sustained only by a strong social infrastructure of giving.
The COVID-19 outbreak has created further challenges, mainly related to deficiencies in adequate shelter and healthcare, which have worsened due to widespread job losses from the closure of many establishments.

Nusaned’s long-term ambition is to gradually
move away from an aid provider to supporting micro-enterprise initiatives. We
are working together with affected communities, our network of 200 volunteers
and focal points, as well as 20 local NGO partners to come up with creative
ideas to always support all Lebanese communities in need.
