Who We Are
Jabr El Khawater is a non profit organization that helps individuals and families in the poorest communities in Mount Lebanon since 2010. Because your donations mean a lot to us, Jabr El Khawater not only selects people in need carefully but also divides the donated money into smaller portions to help more people in need. Jabr El Khawater mainly focuses in helping the orphaned, terminally ill, and the elderly with no family support, together with those who are in dire need for medical assistance. We rely on local donors but with the current economical collapse and Covid related economical consequences, the need for help has risen exponentially and the number of cases that requires urgent assistance is overwhelming. We are not able to continue without the the help of international donors.
Jabr El Khawater’s excellent reputation is in its unique operation, especially when it comes to helping people in need with all the donator’s money. We operate collaboratively with local communities to assess people in need by visiting houses before a donation is given and hence people in need are served as appropriate. Jabr El Khawater distributes donors’ monies to the families and individuals in need without deducting any local operational or overhead costs. With the Covid and current economical crises, Jabr El Khawater is desperate for your donations.
At Jabr El Khawater, every penny counts when it comes to charitable donations, but the average donor may think that they can’t make an impact….every dollar counts and you certainly can. We value every donation-no matter the amount.
What We Do
01.
— We Find & Fund
Every donated penny is important to us, so finding the deserved people in need is our highest priority
02.
— We help the orphaned, elderly, ill and people in need
We visit homes and asses what is needed. We are always short of donations and we end up only contributing little in order to cover wider assistance
03.
— We Strengthen
The combination of strong community relationships and local knowledge allow us to understand better than anyone else our communities’ needs and the best way to meet them given the limited resources.
04.
— We Educate
When families in need struggle to pay intuition fees for schools or universities, and because we do not have the means, we try to help families source funding from other charities. Jabr El Khawater collaborates with other charities to provide educational assistance.

We do care about those who are in need. In many cases, we provide recurring donations to the deserved families or individuals.
06.
— We Consult
Because your donations are important to us, we consult with local residents in variety of villages to identify who deserve your donation the most.
