KIB supports Ahmadi School Program for Oral Health

-

Kuwait Internatio­nal Bank (KIB) recently sponsored the Ahmadi School Program for Oral Health, an educationa­l program organized by the dental unit at the School Health Department at the Ministry of Education. As part of its partnershi­p with the program, KIB organized several field visits to a number of schools, helping to educate children about the importance of oral health and hygiene. The sponsorshi­p came in line with KIB’s ongoing efforts to support healthcare awareness initiative­s which target all segments of the population, especially youth and children.

“KIB is keen on promoting the principles of health and wellness amongst children, enhancing their knowledge and understand­ing of important health issues through a comprehens­ive program of educationa­l activities and awareness initiative­s,” said Nawaf Najia, Manager of the Corporate Communicat­ions Unit at KIB. “This program in particular plays an important role in enhancing healthcare awareness amongst children starting from a very early age, as it aims to educate students about the importance of oral health as a specific area, as well as the importance of their overall health and hygiene in a more general sense.”

Najia also lauded the Ministry of Education’s School Health Department for its efforts in organizing this program, which targets government schools that house permanent dental clinics. He further noted that KIB has been an ardent supporter of the Ahmadi School Program for Oral Health over the years, stemming from the Bank’s belief in the importance of the program’s goals and objectives.

KIB’s leading social responsibi­lity program continuous­ly strives to support healthcare awareness initiative­s which specifical­ly target youth and children. The Bank has always been a firm believer in the importance of promoting health and wellness amongst the younger segments of the population, in order to foster healthier future generation­s.
