Al Fanar Foundation promotes women’s role, improves child education

L’Orient Le Jour highlighted today the accomplishments of a philanthropy venture, Al Fanar Foundation(http://www.alfanar.org.uk/), that works exclusively in the Arab world with the aim to promote the role of women and improve child education. The newspaper spoke to the director of Al Fanar’s Lebanon branch in post since 2016, Michelle Mouracade who boasts 27 years of experience in the field of IT outside Lebanon. Mouracade outlined to L’Orient Le Jour reporter Al Fanar’s mission which basically seeks to strengthen grassroots non-profit organizations that serve the region’s most disadvantaged and deprived populations. Al Fanar, she said, bolsters their capacities to generate sustainable returns through provision of proper financial support aided with training in order to become resilient and financially maintainable, and eventually contribute to creation of jobs in their local communities.
