Our mission is to do whatever it takes to identify, close and prevent gaps in services and protections for refugees and displaced people. We work fast, flexibly and creatively to provide what is needed today, not tomorrow. Prioritising local knowledge and lived experience, we partner with the organisations working along key migration routes. This approach enables us to work in spaces where others cannot - or choose not to - act. We fundraise for these organisations, supporting them to build their capacity and meet needs at three key stages: 1) emergency response; 2) daily survival; and 3) securing futures. Alongside our work with partners, we speak truth and use our platform to share experiences, information and the voices of those we work with. We campaign for the rights of refugees and displaced people to seek safety, often with a focus on unaccompanied refugee children. We aim to change the public narrative around forced migration so that people on the move do not face hostility and discrimination, but are met instead with love. Ultimately, we work towards the day when our organisation can cease to exist.

MISSION We empower socially, environmentally and economically at-risk communities to attain their full potential through robust partnerships and the development of innovative intervention programs designed to elevate their total well-being. Our mission statement serves as a direction for our collective initiatives and programs which supports our vision for the future. With our ambitious dedication to people (impacted by the fairness, inclusion, education, and people welfare systems) our mission statement builds on our records and strengths. We strive to hold on investing in community-led and community-centered ideas, convene key stakeholders within the sector, and advocate for scheme adjustments that meet people's needs. We commit to build partnership with adequate stakeholders and share our knowledge outcomes across the sector so that every Lebanese attains their whole potential. VISION To provide individuals and communities residing in Lebanon with essential access to opportunities, skills, resources, and relationships to actualize their potential. CORE VALUES PARTNERSHIP is the key to any attainment. Our success can only be collective by including all our stakeholders; our team, partners, customers, and the community we serve. INTEGRITY is the root of our collective actions and relationship with our stakeholders. AGILITY is the authentic character of our projects. This emerges from context, setting, or stakeholder identity. Agility is also the unique expression of our customized service. DIVERSITY is the trigger of our framework. It goes beyond ethnicity and means diversity of experience, perspective, and creativity—otherwise known as diversity of thought—and these can be shaped by multiple factors including race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual identity, ability/disability and location, among others. TRANSFORMATION is the commitment to urgent action, innovation and conversion within the world and in our framework. RESPONSIBILITY is the coextensive perseverance and dedication towards the performance of our programs.
