Ruwwad is a regional non-profit community development organization that works with disenfranchised communities through education, youth volunteerism, and grassroots organizing. Our approach encompasses an array of programs and initiatives that deal with issues prioritized by the local community and strengthen agency among beneficiaries. Ruwwad Community Center is located between Bab al Tabbaneh and Jabal Mohsen, two neighborhoods with a history of violent sectarian conflicts, and among the most poverty stricken and marginalized communities in Lebanon.
