The Libraries for Peace Project is a California nonprofit organization
dedicated to the creation and maintenance of libraries throughout Lebanon
and other Middle Eastern Countries. Our particular focus is on young people
who have suffered the trauma of armed conflict or poverty.
Our libraries will provide these young people with a peaceful and safe
place for reading, research, and a space for classes. Our goal is to offer
them a way out of illiteracy and to open opportunities for personal enrichment
and productive employment, so that they may achieve their dreams of a
better life.
It is through education that dignity and respect can be restored and peace
be achieved.
