For over 20 years, the not-for-profit Association Philippe Jabre has been engaged in its mission to meet the needs of the underprivileged in Lebanese society.
With the Covid pandemic, financial crisis, and dire economic outlook, poverty in Lebanon is increasing, the middle class has disappeared, and the cost of living is expensive. Even the basics that we take for granted, like buying food, getting medical treatment, or acquiring training and education is done with difficulty.
Philippe Jabre, who had already a number of sponsorship initiatives going in his personal capacity, decided to professionalize and institutionalize his activities in 2001 by creating a specialized structure whose purpose would be to help the poorest and the underprivileged. He decided to use his successes to give back to those who have not had the same opportunities and to help them overcome difficult situations. He established the APJ because he believes in the potential of the Lebanese and social, cultural and economic development of Lebanon.
Beyond economic aid, the APJ also aims to transmit the message:
It is together with others that we most likely succeed. The acquisition of diplomas and degrees is a necessary, but not the ultimate, step in one’s journey to success. Everyone can contribute through their personal success towards sustainable development and peace.
