Who is Barbara Nassar

Barbara, a young wife and mother, was diagnosed with breast cancer in metastatic stage in 2009. She had a mastectomy and went through uncountable sessions of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. During summer 2011, Barbara challenged her fear and along with her husband Hany and her two children, Leonie and Leonard, she went on “The Lebanese Flag Trip”. For eighty days, she travel

led all over Lebanon and visited more than 1655 villages and towns and collected signatures of mayors on a 10452 dm2 Lebanese flag that she offered to the Lebanese President. She proved that her faith and will are stronger than fear and even stronger than death. On August 16, 2012, cancer spread to Barbara’s brain and more precisely into the meninges. Doctors recommended to stop the treatment because her remaining days were few. Two weeks later, Barbara, on a wheelchair, accompanied her family on a trip won in a TV contest to Bulgaria. One year later, on August 16, 2013, Barbara defied again her illness. From the highest peak of Lebanon, Qurnet el Sawda, she sent regards to her doctors. She was accompanied by her husband and children and one more time she challenged her disease. On February 4, 2014, Barbara, bedridden, witnessed the legal birth of her long-awaited NGO to support adult cancer patients. On February 27, 2014, having secured that her mission will not fade away, Barbara bowed her head and died. Despite pain and suffering, she was always recognized for her genuine smile and inner peace. Objectives of “Barbara Nassar for Cancer Patient Support”:

The association aims at supporting cancer patients and their parents financially and emotionally by covering the costs of medicine and hospitalization through aids and awareness campaigns in order to:
1. Seek enhancing hospitalization conditions of cancer patients in Lebanon.
2. Contribute in ensuring funds to cover expenses for patients in need.
3. Work on moral and financial support for patients and their families.
4. Raise awareness among Lebanese people about the importance of cancer prevention and ask the government to establish mandatory early detection examinations. For more Info, call us on 00961 3 691 624

من هي برباره نصّار ؟
زوجة وأمّ شابّة، أصيبت بمرض سرطان الثدي مع انتشار في العظام في مراحله الأخيرة سنة 2009. خضعت لعمليّة تثبيت الرأس برقبتها بسبب وجود كسر فيها. استأصلت ثديها وخضعت لجلسات لا تحصى من العلاج الكيميائي وعلاج الأشعّة.
في صيف 2011 تحدّت خوفها من المرض، وأنجزت مع زوجها هاني وولديها ليوني وليونار، "رِحلة العَلَم اللبناني"، حيث جالت، خلال 80 يوماً، على أكثر من 1655 بلدة لبنانيّة تجمع تواقيع مختاريها على علم مساحته 10452 دسم2. ثمّ قدّمته لفخامة رئيس الجمهوريّة، رمز وحدة الشعب اللبناني. وكانت تشهد أنّ الإيمان بالله وإرادة الحياة، أقوى من الخوف من المرض. لا بل أقوى من الموت.
في 16 آب 2012 وصل المرض إلى رأسها، وانتشر في السّحايا. فطلب الأطبّاء إيقاف العلاج. إذ إنّ أيّامها باتت معدودة...
في 16 آب 2013، إنتفضت برباره، كطائر الفينيق من تحت رماده، ووجّهت مع ولديها وزوجها تحيّة لأطبّائها، عن أعلى قمّة في لبنان، القرنة السّوداء. متحدّية مرضها من جديد.
في 4 شباط 2014 إستحصلت برباره، وهي طريحة الفراش، على عِلْم وخَبَر رقم 237 من وزارة الداخليّة، لجمعيّة تدعم مرضى السرطان البالغين. بعدما اكتشفت ارتفاع كلفة العلاج، الذي يبلغ آلاف الدولارات شهريّاً.
في 27 شباط 2014 وبعد انتهاء رسالتها، حنت برباره رأسها وأسلمت الرّوح. وقد تميّزت دوماً بابتسامة وفرح وسلام داخلي بالرّغم من الأوجاع التي كانت تعاني منها.

أهداف جمعيّة "برباره نصّار لدعم مرضى السّرطان":
تهدف الى دعم مرضى السرطان واهلهم ماديا" ومعنويا" عبر تأمين تكاليف الدواء والاستشفاء من خلال المساعدات والحملات التي سوف تقوم بها لاجل تنفيذ هدفها.
1. السعي إلى تحسين ظروف إستشفاء مرضى السّرطان في لبنان.
2. المساهمة في تأمين الأموال لتغطية النسبة المترتبة على المريض المحتاج.
3. المساهمة في العمل على تأمين الدعم المعنوي والمادي للمرضى واهلهم.
4. المساهمة في العمل على توعية اللّبنانيّين على أهمية الوقاية من مرض السرطان، ومطالبة الدولة بإلزامية إجراء فحوصات الكشف المبكر لهذا المرض.
5. المساهمة في إقامة المشاريع بهدف توفير الأموال لمساعدة المرضى، وتحقيق أهداف الجمعيّة.

وبطريقنا ميّلنا على عبرين، وكانت هالصورة

ملاحظة: كانت برباره عاملة عمليّة مثبّتينلها رقبتها، مكسورة ومهريّة عضامها، عاملة ١٢٠ جلسة علاج بالأشعّة، وخلال الرحلة عملت جلستين علاج كيميائي، وتطلع بالكارافان وتكمّل.
ومعها ولدين، اهتمّت فيهن طيلة رحلة ال ٨٠ يوم...

لبنان كبير، وكبيرة يا برباره 💜

An article written by Nadine Saadeh and published on leading international platforms such as UICC and OncoDaily.

Thank you, Nadine, for all your dedication and hard work. We truly appreciate your efforts.

Nadine Saleeh of the Barbara Nassar Association, a UICC member in Lebanon, reflects on how Barbara Nassar's journey with cancer, supported by her husband, exposed systemic gaps in Lebanon and inspired a movement for dignified, people‑centred care.

Sometimes, malnutrition has no visible warning sign.

A patient may still look "fine”, yet hidden weight loss and poor nutrition can silently weaken the body.

Start with the right nutritional assessment at the Barbara Nassar Cancer Center, and share this post to raise more awareness.

We were honored to welcome Mr. Pietro Eynard, First Secretary of the Embassy of Italy in Lebanon to the Barbara Nassar Cancer Center.
During his visit, Mr. Eynard toured the Center in the presence of our dedicated team and Italian-Lebanese architect Nadine Kaafarani, gaining insight into our mission, our comprehensive supportive care services, and our ongoing commitment to enhancing the quality of life and well-being of adult cancer patients across Lebanon.
We deeply appreciate his interest in our work and the opportunity to share the vision behind the Barbara Nassar Cancer Center; a place built on hope, dignity, and compassionate support for patients and their families.
We look forward to strengthening connections and exploring opportunities for collaboration that contribute to supporting cancer patients and advancing cancer care in Lebanon.

Excellence Center in Supportive Care in Cancer​Great pride, and an even greater heartache. 🇱🇧

​I am deeply honored to share that during the general conference in Melbourne, Australia, the President of MASCC (Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer) officially announced the Barbara Nassar Center for Cancer Patients as a "Center of Excellence"—the first designation of its kind globally.

​I am proud.

# ​Proud to have raised the name and the flag of Lebanon high on the global stage.

# ​Proud to see international patient advocacy organizations from Europe, the US, and China now looking to the Barbara Nassar model as an example.

# ​Proud that when I say "I," I am speaking for every single volunteer, member, and supporter who has built this family. We took our own deepest grief and used it to soothe the wounds of thousands.

​But behind the global recognition lies a heavy reality.

​While the international healthcare community celebrates and validates our work, the reality back home in Lebanon is a battle of its own.
​There is a common misconception that because of our international presence, we are financially secure. The truth is, my full-time dedication to this mission has required immense personal and financial sacrifice from my family.
Today, like so many households worn down by Lebanon's economic crisis, our association is struggling even to cover the rent of our Center’s building.

​If this were merely a personal project, we would have broken long ago. But this is a mission of faith—it is Barbara’s gift to every family facing cancer in Lebanon. As I always say, and will always believe: "God will provide."

​Join Hands With Us 🙏
​True impact isn't built by a single person; it is sustained by a community. If you believe in healthcare equity, supportive care, and keeping this global beacon of hope alive in Lebanon, please consider standing with us.
​Even the smallest contribution makes a monumental difference.

​🔹 How to support: You can contribute via WHISH or OMT using the association’s direct number: 03691624.
