Having been a part of various social activities, this unique team realized great achievements through filling the hearts of less privileged people with joy, happiness, and profound hope. On March 29, 2010, MCF was registered under the registration statement N^o. 461 issued by the Lebanese Ministry of Interior, to be a public non-political and non-profit organization.

Witnessing the great success of MCF through its philanthropic activities since 2008, the foundation realized that its name should reflect its essence, vision, and mission. Therefore, in 2015, Mohammad CHEAIB Foundation turned into HOPE MCF, the Association that endeavors to spread HOPE of a brighter future and better science research progress, which is one of the unicity and distinguished added value of Hope MCF, merging the unique scientific & business background of its founder to our philanthropic mission and devotion, aiming to guarantee each and every human being the right to lead a dignified life.

Mohammad Cheaib (1935-2005) is a man who has struggled against poverty since his tender age and became an idol in his community through his devotion, ambition, fiery spirit, loving heart, caring hands, and positive thinking.

His first steps in self-sacrifice came at an early age when he started working hard and abandoning school as a young boy to help his father in educating and raising his nine brothers and sisters, for he always believed that a discerning heart seeks knowledge and always finds a way to turn dark moments into glorious ones: he understood that helping others build themselves gives sense to life; and since then, charity and sacrifice became a message he carried and followed all throughout his life, dedicating his time to helping the deprived, the poor, and the illiterate, for his motto was and Have mercy on those on Earth, and He, who’s in Heaven, shall have mercy on you and Heavens endowed Mohammad Cheaib with all the graces he deserved and allowed him to reach each and every goal he aimed at: he had a wealthy life and a highly successful business in the real estate in Lebanon. He invested his wealth in widening his endless positive spiral circle of donation. Without discrimination of any kind and in a spirit of brotherhood and solidarity, he endeavored to make others become independent and capable of developing their own lives. He provided aid and support to hundreds of youth and less fortunate families throughout Lebanon by building careers and optimistic views of the future even during the darkest moments of the Lebanese Civil war.

In 2005, the long journey of this brave fighter for the human dignity on earth came to an end. Yet his spirit remained, he passed the torch to all his children who strive and persisted to continue his path through establishing a one of a kind charitable association that held his name in 2008 and turned into HOPE MCF in 2015 reflecting the essence of his great and profound beliefs based on ensuring the development, progress and constructive assistance that gives hope to those who think that good things happen only to other people.
