Without the financial support of generous benefactors and small donors, Catholic schools in Lebanon would be forced to close, a fact we explore visiting one in Beit Hebbak.

There are ways to make money to support Catholic Schools, and Catholic Hospitals, and Catholic Orphanages. In the old days some priests made and sold wine to make money to help the poor, and they made and sold champagne, and cheese, and other things.
In the modern world, my Mother worked for a company, Sverdrup, and they built a satellite to tell us where our natural resources are, the satellite will tell us where to find Gold, etc. We use Gold to save world economies when the economies are collapsing, for instance in Turkey in about 2000 their economy was about to collapse, their currency was about to become worthless overnight, so the IMF and the World Bank tied Turkey's currency with Gold and they stabilized Turkey's currency. Gold can be used for a lot of things. NASA and Sverdrup can tell the Catholic Church where to look for Gold if the Catholic Church wants to own a gold mine to make money to keep schools and orphanages and hospitals open, etc. And of course people can make jewelry from Gold and they can sell the jewelry to help the church, etc.
Also, people can raise pigs in Battle Mountain, Nevada, and they can sell pork to the people of San Francisco, California, and the money can go for Catholic Schools, and Hospitals, and Orphanages, etc. And people can raise cattle to sell hamburger for fast food restaurants to raise money to help the schools, and hospitals and orphanages, etc.
There are ways to make money to help the Catholic Schools, Hospitals, and Orphanages.
Also as people go with clean electricity, some of the money from the new electric companies can go to help the Catholic Schools, Hospitals, and Orphanages.
And there is the Saint Louis College of Music on Via Urbana in Rome, and they can help people to make music to raise money to help the schools, hospitals, and orphanages, etc.
