LIC HUMANITARIAN EFFORT
In the
aftermath of the Lebanese latest tragedy and after a
careful review of the situation of the displaced
victims, The Lebanese Information Center is launching a
vast effort to help the Lebanese families who suffered
from the war with their basic necessities including
health, housing and schooling.
For this
purpose, the LIC opened a special account: the LIC
AID Lebanon fund to collect money from contributors
in the US and send it to the distressed in Lebanon.
Also, the
LIC is teaming up with the Coalition for the Defense
of Human Rights and created the Lebanese
Christian Relief fund to assist Lebanese families in
hardship.
The money
raised will go to charitable organizations in Lebanon
working specifically on humanitarian aid. The LIC
intends to start with Auxilia Medical-a health
assistance group already helping the displaced with
their medical needs.
The LIC
will be looking for similar organizations with a clear
mission and a well-established structure and personnel,
making sure that money sent from the US will be given in
totality to the proper recipients and not spent to cover
organizational expenses.
