The Barhalioun Lebanese Australian Society was founded in 1960 by a close-knit community of Australian migrants from Barhalioun, Lebanon. Starting from humble beginnings, the Society came together to offer mutual support and preserve their cultural roots in a new country. Over the decades, the Society has grown into a respected community organisation dedicated to helping those in need, both in Australia and Lebanon.
From its inception, the Barhalioun Lebanese Australian Society has been committed to alleviating poverty and supporting the less fortunate. Through fundraising efforts and various charitable initiatives, the Society has provided essential resources such as food, clothing, and shelter to vulnerable communities. One of our notable early efforts was supporting the charity ‘House with No Steps’ (now known as Aruma), reflecting our long-standing focus on improving the lives of disadvantaged individuals.
With a history of strong leadership and long-serving board members who remain actively engaged in the community, the Society has always been driven by a deep sense of responsibility. The ongoing civil unrest in Lebanon, combined with a desire to support our local Australian community, inspired us to form a formal charitable organisation. This new chapter allows us to elevate our mission, extend our reach, and provide even greater support to those facing hardship, both at home and abroad.
Our vision is to create a world where no one is left in poverty or without access to basic human needs. We aim to foster strong, supportive communities in Australia and Barhalioun, Lebanon, by empowering vulnerable individuals through education, health, and sustainable living resources, ultimately contributing to their long-term well-being and self-sufficiency.
The Barhalioun Lebanese Australian Society is dedicated to alleviating poverty and distress by providing essential support to impoverished and homeless individuals in both Australia and Barhalioun, Lebanon. Through the distribution of food, clothing, shelter, education support, and medical care, we strive to improve the quality of life for those in need, ensuring access to basic necessities and a life of security and well-being.
