This Is What The Lebanese Canadian Coalition Just Did In Blast-Stricken Beirut
Right after the Beirut blast, Lebanese business leaders in Canada prompted to form a Coalition to raise funds and assist the victims of Beirut.
The Lebanese Canadian Coalition (LCC) has raised so far about $6 Million, a fundraiser efforts that the Canadian government will match until August 24th.
To ensure that the money will be given fairly to those in need, co-founder of the LCC Mohammad Fakih flew to Beirut with a small team in a 4-day visit, which just ended on Saturday.
