BETA 2012

BETA is a Lebanese registered non-governmental organization (Charity # 205/AD) established to improve the lives of animals in the region. We provide rehabilitation and a safe haven while striving to find the loving, permanent homes these animals deserve. Through education and direct action, we work to prevent animal overpopulation and cruelty, and encourage a society that treats animals with compassion.

"We exist solely on the kindness of your donations, adoptions and assistance".


Last summer, some of my friends and I had volunteered  to go to an exposition for dogs and take care of the Beta dogs and also sell food and drinks in order to raise money for the association. It was in my opinion a really good experience, just to know that we were doing something for a good cause and for poor dogs, trying to find them a new home, a new family, it was just a great experience.


This winter break, some of my best friends and I went to this christmas exposition in Beirut, (Lebanon) because we volunteered again, to sell accessory that some shop had provided to help the Beta organization. We sold as much as possible and explained to all the customers what Beta is about and convinced them to help us and it really worked. We also had around three or four dogs in our stand that we were taking care of and showing them to the people.




















And once again it was an amazing experience and I could honestly do it again and again, because helping a good cause, with friends around you, is just a great experience.
