" Curiosity and creativity are what drive me to stimulate my growth as a human being, and I believe MCN will equip me with the proper tools and support system to properly nurture those traits. I am particularly excited about the notion of being able to do that in tandem with driving positive change in my community, as I am very passionate about the empowerment of the Lebanese people as a whole.

Millennium Fellowship Project: Rising from the Ashes
In response to the war that occurred in Lebanon and displaced many individuals, our initiative provided immediate humanitarian aid and psychological support. Through collaboration between Millennium Fellows in Beirut and Byblos campuses, we gathered and distributed essential supplies, including food, clothing, and hygiene items. Additionally, we conducted psychological awareness sessions in schools and shelters to help individuals, especially children, cope with trauma and stress. Our efforts not only addressed urgent needs but also fostered resilience and emotional well-being within the displaced community.
