The Center for Arab American Philanthropy (CAAP) and ACCESS recently hosted a fundraiser in Dearborn, Michigan to support families in Lebanon, raising $4,060 for CAAP’s Disaster Relief Fund, supporting the on-the-ground efforts of Amel Association International.
The event featured a moving oud performance by Oud Majed and spoken word by poet Ali El-Salloukh. Guests also enjoyed a “breakfast for dinner” with fresh saj and manaeesh.
We extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success:
- Sadra Events and Nice Price for transforming our venue with stunning decorations that brought the spirit of Lebanon to life.
- Our generous food donors:
- Dearborn Fresh Supermarket
- The Ezzeddine Family

- Nissrine Hussein
- New Yasmeen Bakery
- Qahwah House
- Sesame House
- Cedar and Olive Threads for contributing a portion of their sales to Lebanon relief.
- Our partners Al-Nadwa, LSA UM-Dearborn, and LSA Wayne State University for their collaboration and support.
We are truly grateful for the outpouring of generosity of our community. Your support is critical during this time.
