KIB takes part in Ahmadi School Program for Oral Health awareness campaign

As part of its ongoing efforts to promote healthcare awareness across all segments of the community, Kuwait International Bank (KIB) recently took part in the awareness campaign ‘My oral health...is right.’ The bank’s participation in the campaign came under the umbrella of its sponsorship of 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 sponsorship of the program and the campaign, KIB organized several field visits to a number of government schools in the Ahmadi area, in an effort to educate children about the importance of oral and dental health.

Nawaf Najia, Manager of the Corporate Communications Unit at KIB, commented: “KIB is a strong believer in the importance of spreading health awareness within the community, particularly amongst children. For that reason, we actively seek to support a wide range of initiatives and activities aimed at educating children on a wide range of health topics and issues, including the very important issue of dental and oral health.”

Najia further noted that KIB has been a keen supporter of the Ahmadi School Program for Oral Health for several years now, reaffirming the bank’s belief in the program and its objectives. He also lauded the Ministry of Education’s School Health Department for its efforts towards educating children about dental care starting at an early age, as well as its efforts to raise awareness amongst them about the importance of dental health and the basics of oral hygiene.
