The Nawaya Network aims to connect promising disadvantaged youth with mentors, businesses, and institutions, to help them pursue skills or passions that would otherwise go unnoticed. We believe that by enabling at-risk youth to pursue their passions, they will be less likely to engage in violence, crime, and drug-use. The Nawaya Network is a new non-governmental, non-discriminative non-profit organization that discovers hidden potential, connects youth to worldwide resources, and empowers future generations. We operate by deriving youth from pre-established NGO partners, and connecting them to local resources (such as classes, workshops, mentorship sessions) provided by partner individuals, businesses, and institutions. So far, 25 youth have been enrolled in our program, with 25 others identified for future enrollment. Founder of The Nawaya Network, Zeina Saab, recently spoke at TedxBeirut. With upcoming February fundraisers in Vienna and Dubai, we plan to expand to the region as soon as resources permit. The Nawaya Network will launch in March 2013 with a unique and interactive online platform that allows users to connect youth with needed resources - all with the click of a button.
