It all unfolded at Expo City Dubai when 4,000 volunteers came together to pack 10,000 relief boxes filled with essential items to aid Lebanese families in need
The scene was one of unity, compassion, and hope as people from all walks of life, including entrepreneurs, children, and families, worked side by side.
Among the volunteers were notable Lebanese entrepreneurs, including fitness expert Tracy Harmoush and fashion influencer Karen Wazen
Their presence added an inspiring touch, as they joined forces with others to make a tangible difference. Even the youngest helpers, small children, could be seen lending a hand in packing the relief boxes—each filled with crucial supplies such as blankets, food, and sanitary products.
The campaign is being led by Dubai Cares, in collaboration with generous donors and business leaders across Dubai, highlighting the UAE’s strong sense of community and its commitment to humanitarian causes. It’s a truly heartwarming display of solidarity and compassion towards the Lebanese people, many of whom continue to face difficult circumstances. But the efforts don’t stop here…
