ABOUT CG FUND

The Lebanese are witnessing a major disaster that is taking place in their country as the political, economic, and social fabric of the country is imploding.

why
CG Fund’s story
Inspired by three people who have lived their lives in service to others, role models for all, CG Fund’s co-founders wanted to continue a legacy of giving. Coming from this background, community service is in their DNA. Prior to the establishment of CG Fund, personal donations to support humanitarian efforts in Lebanon and elsewhere made a difference. The co-founders wanted to create a sustainable model for giving and thus, CG Fund was established.
