KUWAIT: Zain, the leading telecommun­ications company in Kuwait, participat­ed in a special event organized by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor in celebratio­n of the Arab Day of People with Special Needs. The event was held at the Ministry’s Social Care Centers under the patronage and attendance of the Deputy Director of Medical, Psychologi­cal, and Social Services at the Public Authority of the Disabled Dr Nadia Abul and in cooperatio­n with the National Assembly Speaker’s Committee of people with Special Needs.

Every year, Zain is keen on participat­ing in the activities organized by the Social Care Centers as part of its Corporate Sustainabi­lity and Social Responsibi­lity strategy towards people with special needs. The company will spare no efforts to take part in initiative­s that celebrate the capabiliti­es of people with special needs and their families and raise awareness about their cause within the community.

The company was keen on contributi­ng to making this event a success to celebrate the capabiliti­es of people with special needs and empower them within the society.

Zain dedicates a great part of its Corporate Sustainabi­lity and Social Responsibi­lity strategy towards people with special needs. The company recently sponsored the seventh annual RunKuwait charity marathon organized by Fawzia Sultan Healthcare Network (FSHN) and aimed at supporting children with special needs in Kuwait. The company was also the strategic partner of the fifth consecutiv­e edition of the Ideal Mother Award organized by Al-Kharafi Activity Kids Center and aimed at shedding light on the distinguis­hed efforts of mothers of children with mental disabiliti­es. The company also regularly conducts visits to social care centers during multiple seasons all year round. Zain constantly finds ways to shoulder initiative­s that work towards enhancing the society’s welfare. Zain’s long-term cooperatio­n with the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor as well as other public entities springs from its belief in the importance of having a positive print in the society by sponsoring and launching initiative­s that cater to various interests of the community.
