With the support of our donors, The SOCIAL GROCERY in Tripoli opened its doors in September 2020. The store is the first non-profit grocery in Lebanon and is meeting the need of poor families in Tripoli, to whom buying from commercial supermarkets is becoming extremely expensive. Due to the economic, financial and political crisis, as well as the Covid-19 pandemic, almost half of the population in Lebanon has fallen below the poverty line while prices of food have been sky-rocketing. For example, basic items such as rice have tripled in price over the year. From the SOCIAL GROCERY, these goods can be bought for a reduced price.
After the remarkable success achieved in its first branch, we are glad to announce the opening of our second branch in Tripoli Mallouleh to expand the target group and serve clients from Jabal Mohsen and Tebbaneh.
