Check out our inaugural issue of Seeds of Hope a quarterly newsletter to keep you informed about the progress and challenges of EOL in Lebanon.

As EOL volunteers, we are not professional journalists, but we intend to bring you critical information and interesting stories that will keep you engaged with our overall mission to help the children of Lebanon. The focus of each newsletter will be on them and their needs. We will also highlight many contributors and supporters, both in the US and Lebanon, who support their educational and social progress.

We also want to hear from you, our readers, at [email protected] for comments and ideas on future topics and how to improve our newsletter.

No matter how big or small, your donation makes a difference to a child who would otherwise not have an opportunity.

Please below a note from the principals of a school YOU sponsor
“The gaunt parents entered my office and said they needed to withdraw their daughter from school because they could no longer afford her tuition—in fact they were barely able to feed their family.

"They reluctantly complied when I asked them to sit. I pulled out my EOL file and saw their daughter’s name on it. When I told them a donor in America had paid her tuition, they looked at me in disbelief and immediately began to sob. They could not fathom how a stranger gave their child an education and a better chance in life.

"I wish I could say this was a one-time incident, but it isn’t. They are among the lucky ones—someone cared. I know this donor, who is anonymous to them, is forever in their prayers.”

THANK YOU
