The mission of CEOSS is to promote the sanctity, equity and harmony of life. It seeks to nurture moral and spiritual awareness, enhance a sense of belonging, promote respect for diversity, combat injustice, address conflict, and advance social justice for individuals and communities.
To fulfill this mission, CEOSS has three scopes of work: Development, Enlightenment, and Dialogue.
The four goals which guide these scopes of work are interwoven throughout all of CEOSS’ work whether it is done in Development, Dar El Thaqafa Publishing House, the Forum for Intercultural Dialogue, or any of the other departments. The goals are:
To improve the basic conditions of life in impoverished communities
To empower communities and individuals with sustainable development
To promote tolerance, peace and reconciliation
To promote religious and social enlightenment Hide

In 1952, the Rev. Dr. Samuel Habib, a new graduate of Cairo Evangelical Seminary, began working with the rural poor in Egypt to increase literacy. In the mid 1950s, the project spread to surrounding communities, and Rev. Habib started a follow-up program to educate local leaders to continue the project. Some of the strategies initiated at this point, such as training volunteer leaders, establishing resident field staff in the villages and conducting campaigns against harmful traditions, have remained cornerstones in CEOSS’ development activities even today.
Seeing the interrelated needs of poor communities, Dr. Habib developed a comprehensive program that included literacy, leadership training, home economics, improving family relationships, and income generating projects.
In 1960, the Egyptian government officially recognized the program, and it became a registered social services organization designed to serve Muslim and Christian communities alike. Hide
