For Palestine.
We Persevere.
We Thrive.
Taawon (Welfare Association) is a non-profit, civic organization launched in Geneva in the year 1983, upon the initiative of a group of Palestinian business leaders and intellectuals. Taawon has become one of the largest organizations operating in Palestine and the diaspora camps in Lebanon, whereby it touches the lives of more than one million Palestinians on an annual basis, with half of these beneficiaries being women.
Palestinian lives impacted every year
Invested in empowerment and developmental projects
Institutions worldwide partnered with us
Taawon has signed two agreements with the Canadian Palestinian Professional Foundation (CPPF). The first establishes a strategic framework for joint planning, coordination, fundraising, and the implementation of initiatives supporting Palestinian students in Palestine and Lebanon. This partnership lays the groundwork for broader, long-term collaboration in the education sector.
Taawon is looking to hire an Assistant Architect to be part of our team in our office.
Based on its pursuit of continuous development and growth and in line with its three-year plan-based approach, Taawon developed its strategic plan 2020-2022. The plan serves to continue to consolidate the foundations it was built on, supported by its administrative, financial and program elements, capitalizing on accumulated achievements to make quantum leaps in performance through the adoption of new strategic trends with smart solutions at the institutional governance level that can show actual programs’ impact.
In a powerful blend of art and compassion, visual artist Mrs. Saeda Elbitar Ghanem has donated a portion of the proceeds from her latest exhibition to support orphaned children in Gaza through Taawon’s Noor initiative.
The exhibition, held two months ago at the Diwan of the Abdul Hadi family and under the patronage of HRH Princess Wijdan Al-Hashemi, marked the culmination of four years of dedicated creative work. Elbitar Ghanem’s collection portrayed the human experience with deep emotion and imagination.
