GE/BHGE volunteers are climbing Mount Kenya to raise funds and make a lasting impact on the lives of the children living in the SOS Villages in Lebanon and Egypt.

Syrian Refugee Children in Sferai, Lebanon

All your donations will be dedicated to directly benefit the social integration needs to support the successfully integrated 28 Syrian refugee children, who have no other family, into family houses in the Sferai Village, Lebanon.

The brutal war in neighboring Syria has displaced many children, of which many refugees have fled to Lebanon. Watch the Video

Back-to-School Program in Alexandria, Egypt

The campaign will also impact 325 children in SOS Alexandria and provide them with educational scholarship and back to school supplies. In addition, 13 talented youth will receive laptops to help them continue their education and secure their future.

Note for GE/BHGE Employees: Please remember to request for donation matching through GE Foundation.
