People from all over the region send Santa a letter via our social media touchpoints or The North Pole's post office narrating stories of underprivileged families who need The North Pole's help to remain sustainable. At the end of each month, The North Pole ambassadors silently drop a package filled with food, clothes, personal hygiene products, toys for the kids, covers and the like at the door step of these families with just a note that says from Santa.

Tiro Association for Arts (TAA) was established in 2014 as a non-governmental organization under license n° 2633, located in the Lebanese National Theater in both cities, Tyre and Tripoli, in South and North Lebanon. TAA works on encouraging the local communities to engage with culture and the arts outside of religious and political frames. The association also believes that these communities can express themselves through culture and the arts, not only to convey their identity but also to showcase the issues and challenges that they face. That is, by gathering young volunteers from diverse social, cultural, religious, and ethnic backgrounds with the aim of creating an alternative movement to have a social change.
