Sometimes generosity takes unexpected forms. Not a hastily written cheque, nor an action carried out under the spotlight — but a patient project, built over months, driven by two teenagers with a simple conviction: technology is the world of tomorrow, and everyone deserves access to it.

Isaac and Adam Mfaddel, both students at Lycée Lyautey, first heard about the Bab Rayan association through classmates who had mentioned it during school presentations. The organisation welcomes orphans of all ages and supports them in their development. After several visits on site, the two brothers knew exactly what they wanted to do.

To build up their budget, they took on internships, reached out to their network, and patiently saved up a “fairly substantial” amount, in their own words. Every euro set aside was earmarked for one single goal.

The two brothers did not simply buy machines. They visited several vendors, selected twenty second-hand PCs, completely wiped and reformatted them before getting them back in working order. The equipment delivered also includes wireless mice, original cables, and a few printers.

But their approach goes even further: they reached out to a partner company to train the children in how to use computers, and a technician will provide weekly follow-up visits, ensuring the donation remains sustainable over time.

What stands out in this story is the absence of any grandstanding. Two teenagers who worked, saved, and planned — and who today deliver functioning equipment, complete with training and technical support. Not a symbolic gesture, but a structured, carefully thought-out project.

In a world where much is said about commitment and solidarity, Isaac and Adam Mfaddel chose to act. And that difference, as understated as it may be, is worth telling.
