Featured Initiative

Funding ALEF

The American Lebanon Education Foundation

ALEF is launching a new project in New York: the ALEF Youth Sovereignty Academy. The goal is to give Lebanese American youth and the broader NYC community the knowledge and leadership skills they need to stand for a free and sovereign Lebanon — through workshops, digital learning modules, and practical civic education grounded in transparency, rule of law, and merit.

We are raising $35,000 on Crowdfunder — fee-free, so every dollar goes directly to the program. With this funding, ALEF will develop a complete values-based curriculum, host 6–8 workshops and community events in New York City, produce professional educational video content for the global Lebanese diaspora, and measure and publicly report results with full transparency.
