Francheska Hbayter, Assistant Project Manager

One month after having joined an NGO, I stumbled accross one of LDN's brochures promoting the NGO Capacity Building Program; it couldn't have had a better timing. This course was an incredible push for me in the NGO sector. The different modules were able to grasp my full attendtion. The information given, the tools, the life challenges yu shared with us, your students, have widenend my horizon. My sense of critical analysis has no wreached a higher level. What you are doing is a great initiative, leading local NGOs towards professionalism, yet retaining their core attention to the missions they have been created for. I take pride of being one of LDN's students.

Thank you LDN for the workshop, Concept Note, which presented valuable information for our fresh starting NGO in the social work. The professional skills of the organizing team and the harmony in which the attendees worked in made it a very rich experience.

Nada Daouk, Kitaf el Kheir

The seminar on Concept Note has been quite informing in terms of the discussions and outline we got. On behalf of my fellow attendants, I thank you for this training day. The group of trainees has been very interesting and succeeded in making learning more fun, as Right To Play puts it! I’m sure we’ll keep in touch on different occasions.

Wafa Issa, Right To Play

I've learned how to write a professional detailed proposal in the Grant Seeking Training Seminar, as in the European system. I know now more about the 5w of writing a proposal, the do's and the don'ts, the difference between objectives/outcomes/outputs and efficiency/effectiveness as well as I learned new techniques as Fishbone and the why-why method. I've also learned about the relationship that should be built between the organization and the funder. That's a practical and useful seminar!

Vanessa Bassil, Dialogue for Life and Reconciliation organization

The Grant Seeking” Training Seminar was very enlightening. It helped me understand how to communicate with he donor, gain his trust and support to achieve my goals. The trainer was professional, and the food was good..!

Nader Houella, Center for Economic Information

Dear LDN team, I would first of all like to congratulate you for the great networking you are doing through your website, that offers great help for job seekers and for associations looking to hire.

Thank you for your help..!

Nayla Tabbara , Adyan

I would like to thank you for inspiring us. For you, fundraising is not only a job or task to fill the cause and community needs. It's more than that. It is about being passionate and engaged in what you do in addition to having the proper skills... When it comes to me, I benefited a lot from the training on saturday, however there are so many question still unanswered.

Mona Merhi , Sahbeh Readership Initiative

Thank you LDN  for the valuable workshop of capacity building program for NGO. I look forward for the upcoming sessions.

Najah Ahdab, Nabras Foundation

During our sessions with the LDN, we have often discussed the importance of giving thanks to all the donors involved in our projects. Similarly, our future is also a project and, thus, I would like to thank you for your intellectual donation and involvement in our life projects. I am very thankful and appreciate the opportunity that gave me the chance to attend the LDN sessions.

Thanks LDN for the informative, enriching & useful Introduction to Social Media workshop :-) And i would like to thank our insructor Mr. Michel Kanbour for his expertise.

Rima Dinnawi, YWCA-Beirut

Module 1 of the capacity building for Non profits provided excellent introductory courses for the LAU-LDN “program developer” diploma.

Elie Abouchaaya, HGSD

I want to thank LDN in giving me the chance to finally be subjected to the Capacity Building Program. I am inthusiastically following all the courses given.

It was wonderfull, practical and very interavtive workshop. Hope we will meet again. Thank you always.

Randa Yassir, LECORVAW

It was an absolute pleasure to attend the social media workshop and seize this opportunity to strengthen my skills in the internet media tools; the subjects were timely as the NCF is just starting to activate its programs and is about to launch its activities. Multi-Media being our main mean of implementation, the workshop provided various tools on how to promote the Foundation’s objectives, tools that were immediately applicable, and that was extremely important for our work. Thank you for the organizers, facilitator, and funding agency for this opportunity. Sincerely, Christina Bitar.

Christina Bitar, Naji Cherfan Foundation

I would like to express my gratitude for the wonderful workshop we had together. I also want to thank LDN represented by Mr. Amine Nehme for allowing this great opportunity with what i believe was a pioneer initiative. THANK YOU..!

Tony Mitri Hajj , Lebanese Scout Association

Social Media is one of the best ways of promoting our sites and our businesses through its channels. It is also a powerful strategy that can get us links, awareness and massive amount of traffic. There’s no other low-cost promotional method that will easily give us large numbers of visitors to our website. I’m one of many to believe in the value that social media strategy can bring to our NGOs but not knowing how to use it efficiently for my organization. Thanks to LDN and Dr. Marlyn Tadros’s expertise, I had the precious opportunity to acquire more knowledge about Social Media strategies. Thank you!

May Zaidan, Injaz Lebanon

The Chinese say “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day…teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”. I consider the Social Media and NGO training very similar to this saying. I was given the skills, the know-how, and the training needed and it is now up to me to add them up with my professional experience and to make them last a lifetime. Thanks to LDN and Virtual Activism.

Chantal Souaid, AMIDEAST Lebanon

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to take part in your Social Media and NGO Workshop. It was a wonderful experience extending us with valuable information on diverse social media tools that we can use for free to increase our organization's outreach. I mostly enjoyed the hands-on practice that enriched the entire sessions. The trainer, Marlyn Tadros, did a great job; she was very helpful and patient. Again, thank you much!

Joelle Yazbeck, MIT Arab Business Plan Competition

Thank you Mr. Nehme and LDN for this wonderful and educational experience. It has truly added more knowledge to our cause especially from how we can let the world see what we are doing in the internet universe, and I want to thank Dr. Marlyn Tadros for her effort and kindness for enriching us with enlightened information. Thank you

Elias Sfeir, Lebanese Emigration Research Center

Dear Amin, thanks a lot. I did not only learn valuable info but had a great time, especially that I had the chance to get to know interesting people in the seminar. The presentation was extremely persuasive, flexible and with lots of interaction with the people attending the sessions. Mainly the reason why I attended the LDN Cause & Community Seminar to understand and serve better the Lebanese community via organizing CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) activities; Our most effective and latest CSR activity was “Support Our Heroes!” Campaign where Dunkin’ Donuts customers had the chance to contribute to the Beirut Firefighters’ brigade. In their turn, they would use the money collected to purchase needed materials /outfits.

Martha Zarazir, Dunkin’ Donuts

Hello Amin, just in two words, THANK YOU! Of course, am looking forward for the next seminar!

Hiba Sarieddine, Volunteer

The training was very beneficial, and added value to our skills and knowledge. We now feel more aware of the expectations of different stakeholders involved in project work, and better equipped to meet them with the knowledge acquired through the training session. We mostly enjoyed the interaction with members of other organizations through team work in the practical session. Looking forward to more cooperation and knowledge sharing in the future.

Diane Matar, Association for the Protection of Jabal Moussa

I am glad to say that our organization had a constructive and fruitful experience with your team. We appreciated your professional work and leadership as well as the synchronization in a short period of time. We cannot but be thankful for your courage to come on board of a such complex project and in a limited time and close deadline. With hope that this experience will be the first brick laid in a long lasting business relationship.

Robert Haddad, Mediterranean Design Organization

It was a great opportunity for me to attend the LDN's Fundraising Training Seminar - Writing Concept Paper held on Saturday Nov. 7th. 2009. This seminar has highlighted many points that help me to avoid falling in gaps when writing to a donor (individual or corporate). It was very informative, educational and interesting for me. I mostly enjoyed the interaction that went on between Mr. Amin, Mrs. Rouba and we as attendees from different backgrounds. I believe in practicing on writing different aspects and styles have given me a further insight on how to manage my writings skills at work when approaching certain donor. I strongly recommend this type of seminars from LDN. Thank you again for this experience.

Roula Awad-Harb, Notre Dame University

It was a great experience and interesting session, i really enjoyed every moment of it, as i learned new and important material, that hopefully will help me improve my social work and increase my career in social activities!! I want to thank Mr. Amine Nehme for his vision and advices, and i do hope for more training sessions as i am sure that each one of them will be a new experience to all of us!

Antoinette Hanna, College Notre Dame de Louaize'

Dear Amin, thank you very much for the very lively, informative, and interesting seminar. Even more impressive was your ability to transfer years of experience and techniques into simple concepts that anyone could comprehend, and more importantly, immediately apply. In fact, it pushed me to reflect about each point discussed and improve not only on a professional basis but also on a personal level. We all left the seminar with a completely different perspective. We will continue to practice the skills we've learned because we truly believe it helps our relationship and our vision grow stronger. All this highly compelled me to recommend your seminar to all my associates. Looking forward to meet you again . Thank you and best regards.

Ahlam El Khazen, MADA Communications

Thanking ideas would come to my mind when thinking about the training. It was an interesting training based on a life experience, such a good knowledge and a perfect way of transmitting the message. The material helped and is still helping. I hope we will have another gathering soon, concerning different aside topics we had during the training.

Chebel Rahme, MADA Communications

I want to thank you for the training session on Saturday November the first . As it is a new field for me especially that I am not in the Administrative work or background and i can say it was a new and interesting session. Thanks a lot

Elie Tawil, MADA Communications

I have been volunteering for five years in a charity organization. Attending this seminar promotes my vision toward team work. Building Team is not an easy job to build criteria and having same wavelength thinking of team members. This seminar, with Amin, has highlighted many points that help to avoid falling in gaps. This seminar empowers the implementing planning strategies by using new tools in communication for better constructive team productivity. All the best for all participants and we hope we can meet again. Last and not the least we appreciate your donation Amin. Thank you very much.

Ahlam El-Hattab, Philanthropic Association for Disabled Care - PADC

Thank all for the nice & efficient interaction done on Saturday. I liked it & I am reflecting nice feed back about you all. Thank you.

Dana Dbouk, Beirut Marathon

It was very interesting, empowering, and satisfying to participate in the Cause and Community training seminar with all of you. It was a good opportunity to get acquainted to you personally and to the NGOs you belong to. Moreover it was fascinating to get acquainted to Amine Nehme, our trainer whose training material and approach was very appreciative. It is very interesting for me that small group, individual participation and involvement were valued in the training. Coming from NGOs of different backgrounds, history, vision, mission, and core values, we ran in assuming certain expectations, like, JMP understood 'Program Development' as moving from Social Programs to Development Program. I look forward to being in touch with you and your NGO involvement. I thank Amine Nehme for making it possible for us to know that LDN is there to empower us with NGO capacity development.

Seta Pamboukian, Jinishian Memorial Program

Amin, thank you very much for the great work shop you gave on 'Team Building'. It made me think a lot for few days about all the points. It also helped me in finding things that I have to work on. Hope to see you again.

Firas Farhat, MD , Clemenceau Medical Center

I admit that the training seminar on 'Cause and Community' was quite wonderful and I had personally benefited from the trainer in defining and elucidating some unclear and vague tips I had in my mind before. Now I am pretty sure that I possess all the background information on NGOs and am eager to deepen my interest in this field by researching their current situation in Lebanon and by submitting my intention to register and attend the upcoming ones.

Rudy Sassine, Baldati

Thank you Very Much for the great seminar on 'NGO - Cause and Community'. I hope that i will benefit from every word and information I was taught to help the community and to step forward...

Elie Hasrouty, NDU

I would like to thank you for the opportunity you have given us. It is rare to see such intellectual courses given in our region as we are usually used to the traditional and typical norms of business relations. In my opinion, the sessions you give will help us not only to be efficient at work or in our careers, but it will also make us better persons via our daily lives. The Managerial Leadership session we attended has given me a further insight on how to manage my tasks and come forth with my own input at work. In addition, and surprisingly enough, it has given me more confidence and a push to be more aggressive. I very much enjoyed the interaction that went on between the attendees. I think that listening to different experiences will prepare us to face similar situations the right way. Again, I would like to thank you for such a wonderful and educational experience. I hope that we will continue on this path.

Christiane El Hakim, Colony Capital

Thank you for the wonderful and educational session you led on Managerial Leadership. I was truly overwhelmed by the course as it has immeasurably benefited my view on management and leadership. The session has made me improve in work related matters as well as issues pertaining to my daily life. I mostly enjoyed the interaction that went on between the attendees as it broadened the scope of the session by relating real life experiences to one another. Thank you again for this experience.

George Abboud, MESMA

I want to thank you for the training day that I attended. It's a quite new field for me especially that I had another background and for that it was a new and interesting session. The good part about it too is that I have meet people who shared with us there experiences in this field. It was a fruitfull day. Thank you.

Joelle Rahme, The Lebanese Emigration Research Center
