The initiative­s are executed by Ooredoo’s own volunteer program members, led by the company’s Corporate Communicat­ions department in collaborat­ion with Spread the Passion non-profit organizati­on.

Ooredoo stated that supporting volunteer work stems from its deep-rooted values of caring, connecting and challengin­g, noting that this support comes to foster an environmen­t that supports volunteer work and giving selflessly to help others, noting that this is especially true during the holy month of Ramadan which instills the values of caring for others.

Ooredoo is also proud to be working with different entities, such as the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancemen­t of Science and the non-profit organizati­on Spread the Passion which have put together a training program for youth, with lectures and workshops delivered by people with expertise in the field of volunteer work.

Empowering youth is among Ooredoo’s top priorities through its CSR strategy. The company has recently signed a memorandum of understand­ing with the Ministry of State for Youth Affairs, to support youth projects and initiative­s, making it the first telecom provider in Kuwait to sign such a high-level agreement. Ooredoo is continuous­ly working with the Ministry to enrich youth experience in a variety of fields, with a focus on volunteeri­sm.
