Shabake Project

Under Shabake2, our partner Sanabel Nour Association - جمعية سنابل النور supported vulnerable children in Tripoli, where even a nutritious meal had become a daily challenge.

🍽️ 16,400 hot meals distributed over 80 days
👧🧒 205 children reached every day — including orphans and children with special needs

Alongside food assistance, the project also provided psychosocial and moral support, helping children feel accompanied during a challenging period.

💧 Clean water, stronger livelihoods

Our partner Leb Relief worked with communities in North Lebanon to tackle two urgent needs: access to safe water and better economic opportunities.

🌊 The team rehabilitated water-treatment stations, improved chlorination practices, and shifted facilities to solar power, helping reduce waterborne risks and easing the cost of electricity for local operators.

👷‍♀️ At the same time, trainings and paid work opportunities offered young women and men practical skills and a chance to support their families during a very challenging period.

🤝 By involving residents throughout the process, the project strengthened local ownership and helped lay the groundwork for solutions that can last beyond the project itself.

💚 On , we highlight the work of Skoun Addiction Center under the project — building the skills of frontline workers in Baalback to better respond to mental health and substance use challenges.

🧠 Through specialized trainings, participants learn how to identify signs of addiction, provide initial support, and guide individuals toward appropriate care.

By integrating mental health and substance use services, Skoun is helping make community-based support more inclusive, accessible, and humane.
