Sinnara is a Lebanese non-profit association incorporated in 2025, dedicated to empowering women in vulnerable situations by teaching sustainable artisanal skills. Through the production of handmade clothing and accessories (crochet and knitting), the association operates a social enterprise model combining social impact with income-generating activity. Women receive training and materials and continue producing in supervised workshops as well as from home. Sinnara ensures fair remuneration for their work, while product sales help sustain the association’s activities.
“Sinnara” in Arabic means both wool needle and fishing hook. The philosophy is simple: not to give the fish for a day, but the hook for fishing — teaching a lifelong skill that fosters dignity, mental well-being, and financial independence.
