REAL WORK. REAL CHANGE

About Us

Terra is a nonprofit
organization established in August 2022.

We are a dedicated non-profit organization in Lebanon, committed to supporting the most vulnerable members of our community.

Since its inception, TERRA has formed a strong partnership with TAMKEEN, a dedicated non-profit company based in Lebanon that was established in 2020. Together, they have been committed to providing Syrian refugees with access to quality education while simultaneously improving school facilities to create a more conducive learning environment. In September 2022, TERRA and TAMKEEN took their collaboration a step further and combined into a single legal entity known as “TERRA for Building Resilience.”.

The organization’s mission aims to equip communities with essential resources that foster strength, stability, and self-reliance. Terra focuses on providing comprehensive support across various domains, including education, youth empowerment and humanitarian aid and relief programs, with the ultimate goal of uplifting individuals and families impacted by the ongoing challenges faced in their lives.
