What’s behind the name ``Tri-Pulley``

Tri-pulley was chosen after a fun open invitation brainstorming session where beautiful concerned citizens came together and got introduced to the project before coming up with names that could fit its mission and purpose.

Why did we call it “Tri-pulley”?

  • for the city of Tripoli in Lebanon where the project was born
  • TRI for the 3 pillars of the project Dignifying, Multiplier, Impact
  • TRI for the 3 actors in the project Give (donor), Act (the skilled individual), Rise (the one who will benefit from the program)
  • Pulley for the effect of lifting each other to get out of heavy loads of problems
  • Pulley by definition being a gear, a joint which can relate to the mission of Joining and connecting
  • Trip-pulley: can be used at some point if we develop cultural/culinary/historical trips fundraising event (and actually used for our Trip-Pulley Games)
  • Tree-pulley: can be used at some point if we organize environmental fundraising events
  • The Lebanese “salbeh” and jeux de mots that will make people smile
  • Because of the face Tripolitans made when we gave this option 🙂
