Youth Service Weekend - November 14-16
A call to schools, universities, and youth groups in Beirut and throughout Lebanon. Organizers seek the participation of schools, universities, and youth organizations in a special program of voluntary service that will involve young people throughout Beirut (and beyond).
The adults of today know well that the future lies in the hands of our youth. We also know that, even more than knowledge or skills, young people need to develop their conscience and public awareness through the experience of helping others.The adults of today know well that the future lies in the hands of our youth.

We are holding Lebanon Youth Service Weekend on November 14, 15, and 16. During those three days, people in Beirut will witness hundreds of simultaneous service projects involving young people from schools and universities, scouts and NGOs, civic institutions and public-spirited families. Your school, university, or youth group can participate by organizing one or more projects on any or all of these three days.
To participate, please fill out the form below and send it to us as soon as possible, but no later than November 12.
Following the Youth Service Weekend, we invite the volunteers and others from institutions implementing service projects to participate in a celebration of service and peace.
We hope you will join us in this exciting program to promote youth service and peace in Lebanon.
