EDUCATION Education is a necessary foundation for building a better life and it is the best investment that one can make for the development of the individual and society. Although the Lebanese constitution makes education - at least primary education - legally required,many areas around the country still have many children out of school. Consequently, the Fares Foundation has accorded education a high priority in its programs. The Foundation provides various forms of aid to educational institutions so that they may be able to play their role effectively. The Fares Foundation has provided large-scale aid to a number of educational institutions, among which we mention the following:   The National Orthodox School, Sheikh Taba Akkar, Main Building.   The Issam Fares School (entire), administered by the Islamic Maqasid Charity, Akkar Atika.   Daoud Karam School, Koura, Secondary Education Building.   International College, Beirut, Main Lecture Hall.   University of Balamand, Arts and Sciences Building, and the Issam Fares Forum in the Administration Building.   American University of Beirut, Medical Lecture Hall, and Entrance Arcade of College Hall.   Notre Dame University, Louaize, Architecture and Fine Arts Building.   Antonin University, Baabda, Issam Fares Center for Technology. The Foundation also supports and participates in the renovation and rehabilitation of many public and private schools in Akkar and north Lebanon, and provides equipment for libraries, laboratories, and other school and university needs. The Foundation also assists in literacy campaigns that include adults and children and sponsors training workshops in various fields.
