Welcome to our Website
Dr. Basil Fuleihan believed in his country, Lebanon.
He worked diligently toward the progress and development of Lebanon, and
we want his work to continue, his dreams to come true, his ideas to be
realized and his vision to be fulfilled. The seeds of progress that he
sowed need to be nurtured to blossom and bear fruits for future generations.
This is why we have the Basil Fuleihan Foundation, a non-profit organization
that will continue the legacy of his work for a better future for Lebanon
and the Lebanese. The Basil Fuleihan Foundation will develop solutions
to broad-based social and economic problems, and sponsor research and
other projects in the fields of public policy, public service, reform,
transparency and good governance, with the aim of accelerating economic
growth and development.

The Basil Fuleihan Foundation announces the launch of "WHO AM I?"¯, a
children's book promoting a message of peace and tolerance, by Yasma
Fuleihan.
"Who Am I?" promotes an awareness of self within the child through
personal examination and reflection. Delivering a message of peace
and tolerance, and allowing the young reader to design their own
vision of their future, Yasma Fuleihan hopes this book will empower
children to aspire to live a life without hatred.
All proceeds from the sale of the book go directly to the Basil
Fuleihan Foundation to support foundation programs and activities.
The book, distributed by Librarie El Bourj, is also available in
French under the title "Qui Suis-je?"¯, and both versions are for
sale in bookstores across Lebanon.
They will also be available for international purchase directly
through the Basil Fuleihan Foundation website in the very near
future.
