Myriad Canada is working with trusted non-profit organizations in Lebanon to provide emergency services through charitable activities on the ground.

Among those services, education is a lifeline that must continue—even in times of war. Hundreds of thousands of children have been forced from their homes, struggling with fear, loss, and uncertainty. 60% of public schools have become shelters to house the 1.2M displaced and over 350,000 children are left without education. But despite everything, children’s drive to keep learning hasn’t stopped.

Donations received by Myriad Canada will go to help communities in Lebanon with the help of on-the-ground organizations, such as CodeBrave Lebanon.

The rapidly evolving nature of the situation on the ground requires a responsive and agile response. Contributions will be distributed to projects implemented with diligently selected and trusted organizations that are actively responding to the most pressing needs on the ground.

We are committed to transparency and the integrity of our donors and will regularly update this page on how and where your donations are being used.

All contributions are eligible for a donation receipt for tax purposes in Canada.

CodeBrave Lebanon

CodeBrave Lebanon is providing emergency education in shelters focused on building basic literacy, numeracy and science skills through game-based coding and robotics classes. This hands-on, engaging approach is one of the most effective ways to keep children learning, providing hope, stability, and a much-needed escape from the chaos around them. They are leaning into their expertise of working with children who suffer from toxic-stress, their experience in online learning and their game-based education approach.

CodeBrave has a mission to empower Lebanon’s youth with the tech skills they need to secure safe and decent work and ultimately lift themselves out of poverty. Since 2018, they have been providing innovative coding and robotics programs at schools and shelters for vulnerable youth across Lebanon. They combine a child psychology approach with a cutting edge tech education curriculum to ensure that students reach their full potential. They have upskilled over 2,435 young people, 53% girls, who would otherwise have had no access to 21st century education.
