With this year’s motto “NO TO DRUGS”, the Rotary Club Beirut Cedars is organizing a campaign to help spread awareness among the Lebanese youth about the devastating effects of drugs. The campaign includes:
1. Lectures at schools and universities emphasizing the bad effects of drugs, and how to be aware and vigilant as not to fall victim of the drug dealers.
2. A drawing competition in participation with Fabriano with more than 100,000 students participating from different schools of Lebanon. “NO TO DRUGS” is one of the themes the children will have to choose from.
Rotary Club Beirut Cedars, now embarking on its second year since its inception, has accomplished more than 130,000 USD worth of projects within its first year.

Rotary is a worldwide organization of more than 1.2 million business, professional, and community leaders. Members of Rotary clubs, known as Rotarians, provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.
There are 33,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas. Clubs are nonpolitical, nonreligious, and open to all cultures, races, and creeds. As signified by the motto Service Above Self, Rotary’s main objective is service — in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world.
The mission of The Rotary Foundation is to enable Rotarians to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty. The Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation supported solely by voluntary contributions from Rotarians and friends of the Foundation who share its vision of a better world.
