“The Lebanese dynamic duo helping frontline workers this Ramadan”

Ziad Daouk and Leonardo Moqdad met through the NGO Ahla Fawda in Beirut. The duo share a passion for giving back to their home country of Lebanon. Ziad joined the team in 2014. “I was a student, I wanted to volunteer and have some fun,” he explains.

Lebanon’s humanitarian needs grew tenfold as the country fell into a severe economic crisis. The original concept of Ahla Fawda was to beautify local spaces, create street festivals and host events in the community. The NGO had no choice but to provide broader services immediately after the Beirut Port explosion. Their new mission was fixing homes, feeding and providing necessities to those in need.

Lebanon’s economic meltdown
“The Lebanese people face a lot, other than food and the electricity and the water and it’s medication and education (they need). It’s a big cluster of depression and anxiety and wanting to do something but not being able to,” Leonardo tells Scenes. “So everybody’s in survival mode at the moment, including me. My survival medicine could be doing humanitarian work,” he adds.
