Who We Are

The Barbara Nassar Association For Cancer Patient Support (BNA) is a community of individuals dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by cancer in Lebanon. Founded in February 2014 (R.N. 237/239), the BNA strives to provide assistance, information, and advocacy to cancer patients, their families, and loved ones. Our mission is to support the emotional, social, financial, and spiritual needs of those on their cancer journey and beyond. Our community consists of patients, survivors, volunteers, supporters, oncologists and healthcare professionals, all working together to save lives.

Mission:
