As well it will help support a new extension of the SB Espoir programme in Belgium that works with asylum-seeking women and girls at the Red Cross Centre in Jette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each table was given an adjective like \u201cambitious, courageous and bold\u201d to that describe the strength of the women and girls in our programmes. Also on each table, guests found the story of one of the refugee women or youth from Lebanon, along with hand-made dolls which were available for purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While we arrived to the venue with 46 dolls, we left with only four!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/brussels-express.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/MG_0945-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32274\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The night\u2019s programme included a performance by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zFwM5fEh0Ng&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;fbclid=IwAR1_FlluJLpuuuDL1M8wHflpZ0BJSMdm0k2gGkgJPzcQS_mVdNwON3ze6q4\">Yasmine Said, a 6 year old musician<\/a> who plays the Kanoun, an instrument traditional in the Middle East. She is a student of the distinguished Kanoun instructor, Suhad Najm. After the breaking of the fast with a meal prepared by the &#8220;King of Shawarma\u201d restaurant which is owned and operated by a family of Syrian refugees, we presented our projects in Belgium and Lebanon with two videos produced by our volunteers. Then, we did a quiz on the rights of women followed by the raffle of items from our centres. Finally we ended the night with a performance of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/alkhatibevent\">whirling dervish, by Ahmad Alkhati<\/a>, a traditional Sufi dance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many of the guests, breaking the fast with a large iftar gathering is not uncommon, including for our community of supporters with a Syrian refugee background, from the Moroccan-Belgian community and a group of asylum seeking women and families who have just arrived in Brussels. But for some, this was their first traditional iftar dinner: including our SB Espoir volunteers, student supporters from the Brussels School of International Studies, the Univerisit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles, partners at pwc and supporters from the EU Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thank you to everyone that attended for showing your support. Without you, we would not be able to continue supporting our three centres in Lebanon as well as the SB Espoir and Son Choix, Son Avenir project in Brussels.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><em>A few messages from some of our guests that enjoyed the night:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;Un tout grand merci pour l&#8217;invitation hier&#8230; j&#8217;ai \u00e9t\u00e9 bluff\u00e9e par le cadre, la nourriture.
