In June 2025, himaya organized the Let Hope Shine Through Gala, a fundraising evening dedicated to supporting child protection services and reaffirming a shared commitment to creating safer childhoods across Lebanon.
Hosted at Place de l’Étoile in Downtown Beirut, the Gala brought together supporters, partners, public figures, artists, media personalities, and representatives of institutions who believe that every child deserves to grow free from violence. The evening featured performances by renowned Lebanese artists, inspiring moments of reflection, and a live art auction made possible through the generous contributions of artists, galleries, and supporters from Lebanon and abroad.
A defining moment of the evening was the launch of himaya’s national awareness campaign, إذا معك خبر، عطينا خبر (“If You Know Something, Say Something”). Introduced by himaya’s media ambassador, actress Maguy Bou Ghosn, the campaign calls on everyone to take responsibility by reporting suspected cases of child abuse. It reflects a simple but powerful belief: protecting children begins when someone chooses to speak up.
More than a fundraising event, the Let Hope Shine Through Gala celebrated the power of collective action. Every contribution, every partnership, and every act of support helps himaya continue preventing violence, responding to child abuse, and ensuring that children and families across Lebanon have access to the protection and services they need.
