‘Voix de la Femme Libanaise’ is a non-profit organization founded in 1970 by Mrs. Lily Sara, to provide assistance, with the support of the Belgian community, to disadvantaged women, children and families in the social, healthcare and educational fields through its social and medical centers located in Ain el Remmaneh and Fanar.
VFL focuses nowadays on three key areas of support to those underprivileged families:
Our mission is to provide social, educational, and medical care in our centers to underprivileged families suffering from financial difficulties. Our team strives to ensure healthy and decent living for those families, and most importantly supports them in educating their children.

Our Vision is to help families in financial distress aim for a ‘Better Tomorrow’ while navigating through the daily challenges of life.

Together with the executive team, the Administrative team is the fuel of VFL; a team of 30 ladies, managing the day-to-day activities of the Centers, developing fund raising initiatives, and most importantly always available to listen and comfort families in distress.
Volunteers are essential for our center’s weekly social activities, impacting the different groups and communities they engage with.
Volunteers are trained and supported by our full-time team optimizing their competencies through trainings, workshops and evaluations.
