As we close on our first year of operation, we reflect back on the year that passed. This has been a challenging year for the people of Lebanon. Despite the enormity of the challenges and the apparent intractability of the problems the country faces, we celebrate the successes of RULA and many other non-profits operating on the ground, putting together programs to assist those in greatest need to help them weather through these difficult times. We also marvel at the strength of the individuals we came across who continue to persevere despite the obstacles and calamities that befell them. We continue to be inspired by these individuals, and we hope you share our inspiration. 

–With great appreciation, the RULA team
