Embark the journey of change.
CARITAS provides economic development, livelihoods, health and social care, education, service to foreign refugees, emergency and crisis intervention, environmental supervision and protection of the needy, in coordination with the Council of Catholic Patriarchs and Bishops, dioceses, and priests.
CARITAS Lebanon is striving for a developed, sustainable, and environmentally inclusive world. We believe that all human beings have a common origin and are created in the image of God and have the same dignity. The main pillars of Caritas Lebanon’s Vision are Solidarity, Prosperity and Fraternity. “Treat people, especially the weak and marginalized, as a brother who needs help and support” (Matthew 25:31-46).
Caritas (Latin equivalent word for charity) was founded in 1897 in Freiburg, Germany. In 1972, the Jesuit Brother Elie Maamari founded Caritas South Lebanon in cooperation with this region bishops. It became Caritas Lebanon on September 9th, 1976.
Over five decades of its existence, Caritas has honored its commitment and pledge to the needy.

Children face daily risks… online and in real life. Even familiar places can hide danger.Make your children feel safe enough to talk, not hide. Don’t let a small incident become a lifelong trauma.💬 If they don’t feel safe with you, they won’t talk to you. Be the safe shelter your children need.Safeguarding is everyone’s duty. Protecting children starts with creating safe spaces where trust replaces fear, and silence gives way to voice
