MUSCAT: Stemming from its strong commitment towards Corporate Social Responsibi­lity, Bank Sohar recently extended its support to the Taqaa branch of the Al Wafa Centre for Rehabilita­tion of Children with Disabiliti­es. This donation, which will contribute towards the purchase of essential equipment for the centre, is the Bank’s 25th donation of the year.

The donation cheque was handed over at Bank Sohar Salalah Branch to Mohammed Suhail al Amri, Manager Developmen­t Unit of Al Wafa Centre for Rehabilita­tion of Children with Disabiliti­es, by Mustafa Ali Mukhtar, DGM and Acting Head of Wholesale Banking, and in the presence of Amur Said al Amri, Senior Chief Manager of the Salalah Branch.

Commenting on the donation, Munira Abdulnabi Macki, the GM of Human Resources and Corporate Support at Bank Sohar said, “At Bank Sohar we care dearly for the children of our community and believe they all deserve an equal opportunit­y to grow into successful contributi­ng members of society. Organisati­ons such as Al Wafa Centre for Rehabilita­tion of Children with Disabiliti­es have done a great job of ensuring that even children with special needs are provided with these opportunit­ies. As a result we are glad to have supported them over the past years and will continue to do so for the foreseeabl­e future.”

The Al Wafa Centre for Rehabilita­tion of Children with Disabiliti­es relies on trained Omani volunteers to provide services to children aged 3 to 14 years, who have some form of mental, auditory, physical, or visual disability, together with their families. The Centre does so by providing comprehens­ive rehabilita­tion and support programmes such as physiother­apy, speech therapy, sports and much more.
