Is an emotional wellbeing program that was launched as a response to the deep emotional needs witnessed among children and adolescents. Focused on overcoming Adverse Life Experiences (ALE) and building resilience through a tailored curriculum. The program provides a safe space for adolescents to express themselves, process their experiences, and develop healthy emotional coping skills. In its first pilot year, WAM was initially implemented in an underprivileged school with 65 children of challenging situations and backgrounds, in the suburbs of Beirut. This program was also developed with a spiritual version and implemented in partnership with the teens ministry at the Beirut church of Christ. Our goal moving forward, is to roll WAM into more schools, empowering a new generation to grow with resilience, confidence, and emotional well-being.

STITCHED is our sustainable knitting & crocheting program that began in 2023, designed to empower women by equipping them with valuable skills that can generate income and foster independence. Through this initiative, women learn the art of knitting and crocheting and are supported in turning their craft into a sustainable source of livelihood. Beyond skill-building, STITCHED also creates a community of encouragement and purpose, where women uplift one another and gain confidence in their abilities. The proceeds from the program are used to support children and individuals with special needs by funding their therapy sessions. Through STITCHED, we not only empower women but also extend our impact to those who need specialized care and support.
