About our Foundation
Our Impact
SOL Kids is more than a program:
it’s a safe haven in the heart of Burj Hammoud. Whether it’s helping a child with homework, offering a listening ear during difficult times, or creating memories through summer games, we aim to equip every child with the tools they need for a brighter future.
*Our history
Our story began with a few people who cared for the children of Lebanon’s poor and undeveloped areas such as Nabaa. They started visiting families to offer support and assistance. To our surprise, we found many people of different backgrounds and religions requesting help with their children. As a result, with the help of God and many friends, we rented two apartments in March 2006 creating the “Spring of Life” center for at risk children. From the beginning, we took many of the children to summer camps and were touched by their educational, spiritual, emotional, and physical needs. We were welcomed into their homes and quickly earned their trust to become extensions of their family’s lives.

In December 2008 we merged as a sub-unit of “Mutual Faith”, a registered non-government organization in Lebanon, who undertook large scale social work in Nabaa and Bourj Hammoud district. In March 2010 we expanded our two apartments and became a part of the LIFE CENTER in Bourj Hammoud, where we educate, shelter, and feed around 100 at-risk children per day of ages 6-14 coming from various religious and cultural backgrounds. The children are divided into two remedial programs: A morning program for alternative education, and an afternoon program for homework assistance.

Since 2018, SOL Kids in Burj Hammoud has grown into a vibrant community space where children can learn, play, and receive the support they need to thrive. Today, our programs reach hundreds of children each year, offering both educational and emotional care.
