Our charity grants tuition subsidies to school children, administers school development aid and manages education and poverty relief projects.
We appeal to the Lebanese internationally and to friends of Lebanon for solidarity and support of our action in the field.

OUR FOCUS IS SET
In response to the unfolding education and poverty crises, Alphabetical Order directs its efforts to support underprivileged families, schools and vulnerable schoolchildren throughout Lebanon.
Advance education
Through our tuition aid programme, we subsidise school fees for children from lower-income families throughout Lebanon. We need your support to maintain this programme and develop other education initiatives.
Bolster schools
Through our school sponsorship programme, we allocate aid to schools throughout Lebanon and help them raise needed development funding. Get involved…join our fundraising effort.
Combat poverty
Families have traditionally been the safety net of Lebanese society . With close to 80% of the resident population now living in poverty, this support system is buckling. We therefore ask for your support of our targeted programmes, to relieve those most vulnerable.
Develop knowledge
Our mission is also to create knowledge through research and to disseminate the outcome of such research, in the pursuit of our purpose, for the benefit of the wider public.
