Building Dignity Through Action Since 2003
Founded in Beirut, Lebanon, Volunteers Together has been empowering underprivileged families to achieve self-sufficiency and live with dignity for over 21 years.
Two Decades of Compassionate Action
Since 2003, we’ve been empowering Lebanese families to live with dignity.
What began as a small group of volunteers in Beirut has grown into a comprehensive support system reaching families across Lebanon.
When Lebanon’s economic crisis hit in 2019, we didn’t step back—we expanded. We created innovative solutions like VT Closet, VT Community Center, and VT Mentoring to address new challenges while preserving dignity.
- Every dollar donated goes directly to families—zero overhead
- We verify each case through home visits and partnerships
- Programs designed to empower, not create dependency
- Complete transparency in all operations and finances
