Your kind donations have allowed the WLCU Sydney to supply free bread to the poor of Beirut.<\/p>\n<p>We have also been able to rebuild 10 homes for those affected by the blast and have purchased $14,000 of medical supplies, and hand-delivered them to the St. George Hospital medical superintendent, so as to assist those still unable to access medicine in the Lebanese Capital.<\/p>\n<p>And now to finish 2020 in style, we will be hosting a very special fundraising dinner, celebrating the Lebanese culture, with a five-course degustation menu, together with the finest Lebanese wine, at Doltone House Hyde Park. We will be taking each of you on a journey around Lebanon sampling the local cuisines of each of its regions.<\/p>\n<p>All proceeds collected on the night will go to assist with the Lebanese disaster effort and with education in Lebanon. Our event partner will be the Lebanese In Finance Executives (LIFE) Generation. They are an international body with DGR status in Australia, who have pledged international support for the victims of Beirut and the education of the next generation.<\/p>\n<p>I trust I can have your excellent company and your support for En Route To Beirut.<\/p>\n<p>Warm Regards,<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr Shane Geha<\/strong><br \/>\nPresident of the World Lebanese Cultural Union of Sydney Incorporated<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-24223\" src=\"https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-3-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"205\" height=\"154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-3.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 205px) 100vw, 205px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-24224\" src=\"https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"205\" height=\"154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-2.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 205px) 100vw, 205px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-24218 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed.png 1000w, https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/wlcu.world\/ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/unnamed-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Your Taxi is on its Way!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>We look forward to boarding a Lebanese taxi with you, to explore its regions, experience its finest food and musical delights, En Route to Beirut.<\/p>\n<p>Together, let&#8217;s embark on a truly memorable cultural and culinary journey; one that will enrich all your senses with classical Middle Eastern music, delights, the finest Lebanese wines and sweets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date and Time<br \/>\n<\/strong>Sat 28th November 2020 at 7:00 pm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Location<br \/>\n<\/strong>Doltone House Hyde Park<br \/>\n3\/181 Elizabeth St, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dress Code<\/strong><br \/>\nLounge suits and evening wear<\/p>\n<p>If you would like more information, please contact Laudy Farah-Ayoub via <a href=\"mailto:events@wlcunsw.org.au\">events@wlcunsw.org.au<\/a> or phone 0411 330 204.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Bread, Shelter and Medical Supplies Dear Stephen, On behalf of the entire WLCU Sydney Committee, I would like to thank all of you for your unwavering support, especially over the last three months.
