Community involvement is an ongoing concern of the Lebanese
American Heritage Club, and this involvement takes on different forms. Most
importantly, the L.A.H.C. fully supports the "D.A.R.E" to Keep Kids Off
Drugs" program in Dearborn. The club recently donated $1,000 to this
program, and invited an officer from the Dearborn Police Department to
outline the program to its members and the community. The D.A.R.E.
program's focus is consistent with our belief that we can best fight the
drug problem by attacking the demand side. We plan to continue doing our
part to keep the community's children off drugs. The L.A.H.C. is a long-time participant in the Memorial Day Parade in Dearborn, and in the Dearborn Homecoming since 1993. The club also helps community members participate in elections by explaining the process to them, and by providing transportation to help people get to the voting centers. |
