Lebanese Club @ Penn

All are welcome!

Coming to Penn was my first time coming to the US, and I was preparing myself to start living without the culture that I grew up with. Joining the Lebanese Club allowed me to join a community of people equally as passionate about promoting Lebanese culture on campus as I am. From the independence day party to teaching people how to make baklawa, the kinds of events that the club plans span a very wide range.  It’s also very welcoming community, and you definitely don’t need to be Lebanese join - a love for our culture is enough!

I've found a place to call 'home' at Penn with the Lebanese Club. My time at Penn would not have been the same without the memories and friendship of everyone in the club. I was welcomed so warmly as a freshman and my involvement with the club helped ease my transition to college. As a Lebanese-American, I've been so happy to be able to connect to my Lebanese heritage while meeting other students who are either Lebanese or interested in the Lebanese culture more broadly.
