Members are able to donate via the Ooredoo App or the Ooredoo website, and can keep track of progress towards the target via the dedicated Donation Meter page.

Sabah Rabiah al-Kuwari, director of PR at Ooredoo, said: “We have a longstandi­ng partnershi­p with Qatar Cancer

Society and are proud to work with the organisati­on on this charitable initiative. Their work within the community is invaluable, and we’re honoured to be able to support them in any way we can.

“We’d like to extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every Nojoom member who has so generously donated their Nojoom Points to this worthwhile cause, enabling Qatar Cancer Society to continue to help those affected by cancer, their families and our wider communitie­s. And we would also like to remind members that there is still time to donate!”
