Over the weekend, the Melhem Foundation held secure calls with partners in Lebanon and leadership discussions with Vice President Mrs. Jana Warde to review the evolving situation on the ground and the urgent humanitarian needs facing many communities.
We also recognize Interim Associate Chris Armache for proposing the initiative that helped accelerate this response.
Following the leadership meeting, Mrs. Jana Warde authorized the immediate coverage of bread and a source of nutritious protein for over 200 families in collaboration with our trusted partner, Al Tawarek Foundation, for the coming month. Aid distribution is expected to begin this week.
This initiative has been funded by the Melhem Scientific Charitable Fund.
