LHDF (Lebanon Humanitarian & Development NGOs)


After the infamous Beirut Blast incident that took place on the fourth of August in 2020, Lebanese Spotlight volunteers started to work to aid the affected areas; most notably Mar Mikhael, Karantina, and Bachoura. This initiative started many partnerships with NGOs of a related cause. LSL partnered with Himaya supporting the motive of child protection; based in Karem El Aris and Bachoura area. Also, LSL and Shabebik cooperated to distribute aid packages at Mar Mikhail. Moreover, LSL supported Catalytic Action in surveying residents to provide their needs after the explosion. Lebanese Spotlight partnered with Sustain the World to provide a meaningful employment experience to the youth after the incident aiming to sustain their hopes of the future and reinforce their skills. 
Due to all the above-mentioned Volunteering Activities, LSL joined LHDF Network as Youth Empowerment NGO to collaborate and develop the potential for Humanitarian affairs through referrals on RIMS where two volunteers from LSL took charge.

منذ انفجار بيروت في 4 من اب 2020 قام شباب من جمعية بقعة ضوء لبنانية بالنطوع في احياء المدينة المتضررة لمساعدة الناس على اعادة الحياة. من هذا المنطلق ساعدنا جمعية شبابيك بالمساعدات االغذائية على توزيعها في احياء مار مخائيل و حماية في حماية الاطفال في الباشورة وقصقص كما اننا انشائنا مشاريعنا الشبابية الخاصة مع Rise 2030 علي للمساعدات الغذائية.

لأن الأطفال هم مستقبلنا والطريق اللامع لإعادة لبنان بلداً مشرقًا، فإننا نعمل على تغذيتهم بالأنشطة المتنوعة لتنمية قدراتهم الفكرية والعملية بالتعاون مع جمعية حماية الحامية للأطفال، وهدفنا خلق مساحة لتفريغ طاقاتهم بما يفيدهم في الحدائق العامة واستغلال هذه المساحة وإعادة انعاشها  بهم. فنحن نعمل لخلق  البهجة والسرور على وجوههم الصغيرة، واظهار مواهبهم و اكتشافها.

A group of committed LSL youth (Team Brave) took initiative to clean Horoj mainly to raise awareness to the importance of preserving the cleanness of public spaces along with the protection of the environment. This activity was held also as a part of the series of collaboration between Lebanese Spotlight and ForumZFD.





Colonie || Lebanese Spotlight and ForumZFD

 



Lebanese Spotlight with the cooperation of ForumZFD established a summer camp for children aiming to provide a safe and joyful atmosphere for them to have fun. Lebanese Spotlight deeply acknowledges the tough times that Lebanon is going through due to the pandemic and economic crisis and how this impacts the psychological well-being of children, especially after a year of consecutive lockdowns and negligible school campus experience to socialize and play with their friends. This summer camp ensured they will be able to mentally prepare for the upcoming academic year back on campus and provided an enjoyable time for everyone.
