"Now more than ever, Beirut needs us to stand together and be there for those who are suffering.”

Teenah, one of Mercy Corps partners under the Dutch-funded Access to Jobs and Justice Program, is a women-owned textile company that employs Syrian refugees and Jordanian women in Irbid.

Teenah sells eco-friendly products both locally and internationally while providing jobs and skills to women who need them the most.

After the Beirut explosion, Teenah collaborated with Jawnah, a Lebanese online cultural preservation brand, to distribute a tote bag containing hygiene items for women and girls affected by the devastating explosion.

Each bag also contains a card for recipients letting them know that they are in peoples’ thoughts. Teenah aims to deliver 2,000 kits to women and girls in Beirut.
