Welfare Wheat Race
This
upcoming 29th of April, I’ll be running the 5K race in Broumana Lebanon
to help the needy and the disabled.
Often
people say: I want to get involved, I want to do help others, but we get so
busy or distracted that we lose focus on the main cause.
Well not this time, there are no excuses;
I’ve set my mind. For all my Lebanese readers, you can still participate, as
for my readers from abroad you can still like the page on Facebook:
And maybe my post will motivate you
to search for local charity events in your own country, we may not realize it
but sometimes something so simple can have such a huge impact.
Please take a minute and check the description, and thank you.

Al
Amal Institute for the Disabled is a non-profit, non-governmental organization

for the mentally disabled is located in Broumana - Metn, but our programs aim
to improve the integration and autonomy of these people with special needs on a
