NBK and LOYAC support cybercrime awareness programs
KUWAIT: National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) continues its support to LOYAC and sponsors its Cybercrime Committee Program as part of its commitment toward corporate social responsibility.
NBK’s Sponsorship to the program aims to raise awareness on the cybercrime protection laws in Kuwait, and the most common mistakes that youth make on social media. The Cyber Crime Committee Program runs for 3 weeks, where participants will explore and research with specialists from the Ministry of Interior about topics that encourage their role as active members in our society.
The Program addresses cybercrime in Kuwait, the legality and how to correctly use online platforms. The participants are to create and showcase an awareness campaign based on their research and information they received. “NBK’s sponsorship is part of its ongoing drive to fulfill its corporate social responsibilities”, said NBK Public relations Officer, Joanne
Al Abdul Jaleel. “As part of the program, NBK and LOYAC will produce a video campaign for social media to help raise awareness on cybercrime.”
Al-Abdul Jaleel added “NBK’s sponsorship and support comes in line with the bank’s customary and ongoing spirit of corporate citizenship as well as the vital role it plays in supporting youth.” NBK continues to promote a range of philanthropic missions and social welfare programs as part of the humanitarian dimension of its corporate social responsibility to assert its leadership in supporting Kuwait’s social development, standing as a model in serving all aspects of the community.
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.
