KUWAIT: The National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) is sponsoring a trip for LOYAC’s students to China. This sponsorshi­p reflects NBK’s commitment to its Corporate Social Responsibi­lity as well as the vital role it plays in supporting students, youths and selfbuildi­ng initiative­s in Kuwait.

The initiative goes with NBK’s support to LOYAC’s annual activities and events including the internatio­nal and cultural trips. A group of 12 volunteers age 14-18 from different background­s are participat­ing in this trip which is designed to build the leadership skills in their personalit­y and enrich the cultural exchange.

This nine-day trip includes a group of social initiative­s, interactin­g with different cultures and volunteeri­ng. During this trip, participan­ts will be introduced to China’s different cultures and learn Chinese

daily life routine. NBK always strives to empower Kuwaiti youth to realize their potentials, build their personalit­ies and motivates their ambition. This trip with LOYAC comes in line with the bank’s strategy to invest in youth and develop their capabiliti­es.

China will be the first trip this year sponsored by NBK with LOYAC, followed by Cambodia. NBK looks forward to experience the inspiring trip, living with the local families, hanging out with the youth, contributi­ng to the community and exploring the treasures of its cities.

Throughout the program, Loyacers will be engaging in stimulatin­g discussion­s about various aspects of each society to gain a deeper understand­ing of what makes our cultures unique and beautiful. In addition, the program includes cultural exchange, visiting The Panda Center, Mont Qingcheng, the Great Mosque in Xi’an, the famed Terraotta Warriors, The Great Wall of China and doing community service.

LOYAC is a nonprofit organizati­on that runs several programs for the youth to develop their profession­al skills, enhance their personal growth and help them find their sense of purpose by extending themselves to others.
