LLWB MSMEs Relief Fund will provide “grants” to 5 SMEs that can provide relief packages/services/support to communities affected by the Beirut blast. These grants (Revenue-Enabling) would subsidize 100% of expenses related to providing services to clients impacted by the Beirut Port Blast. These grants will have a positive impact on the portfolio MSME itself, its relevant Stakeholders, and their end-clients.
Immediate assistance is a must for the small businesses’ ecosystem to survive the triple crises the Lebanese people are witnessing.
By funding an MSME Relief Fund of only $50K, LLWB will have a significant direct and indirect impact on its community of small business owners and the Lebanese population.
Direct Impact:
Sustaining employment: 126;
Ensuring at least 4 months of operations continuity for 5 MSMEs;
Enabling revenue;
Bringing back motivation to our entrepreneurs;
Indirect Impact:
Creating Jobs through Stakeholders: 42;
Supporting Victims of Beirut Blast: 792 Families.
Amount to be fundraised: $50,000
