The Non-Profit Organizations are mapped out and selected based on the impact they have on the ground, extensive experience in the sectors of intervention and access to the most vulnerable communities;
Assessment reports on the Non-Profit Organizations are produced focusing on quality areas such as governance, transparency, and accountability
What are the Costs Related to Projects?
XPATRIA Believes in Transparency. OUR Team Consists of Volunteers and are not PAID for their service to the CAUSE.

- Vetting and Monitoring the Distribution of Funds on the Ground
- Social Media and Website costs to run the campaigns
- Local Community Outreach initiatives and Marketing
As we believe in helping the cause in Lebanon, most of the 5% admin is spent locally, to support Lebanese small business’.
