Manara Youth Center
Manara Youth Center offers peace-building, psychosocial, and recreational programs in the community of Bourj Hammoud. The center also offers after-school tutoring, scholarships, books, stationary, and academic tracking. It also runs clubs as part of our spiritual program with Bible study and discipleship groups. During summertime, the center opens up a variety of clubs for youth to have fun and learn.
Manara Youth Center has a recreational game room and lounge area. It is a safe space for young people to engage in activities, be distracted from daily stress, establish relationships, learn and discover. Project staff and other volunteers are present during opening hours to supervise, hang out with the teens, build relationships of trust, and help them connect with others in a positive and constructive way.
Our goal is to reach out to youth with the gospel walk alongside them and guide them in their holistic development to a brighter and hopeful future.
