Zain Kuwait celebrates World Children’s Day with BACCH

Special event in partnership with ‘Sahabat Amal’ volunteer team

KUWAIT: In a step to foster the spirit of giving, sharing, and community, Zain joined a special initiative held to celebrate World Children’s Day at Bayt Abdullah Children’s Hospice (BACCH). The joyful event, organized by the ‘Sahabat Amal’ volunteer team in collaboration with the Kuwait Association for the Care of Children in Hospitals (KACCH), brought together children, families, and volunteers for a day of fun, laughter, and heartwarming moments.

Zain’s contribution to this wonderful gathering came under its ongoing partnership with ‘Sahabat Amal’, BACCH, and KACCH, through which the company has had many fruitful initiatives and programs throughout the years to serve the humanitarian goals of the three non-profits. By actively supporting such projects, Zain seeks to reflect the commitment and key role of the private sector in shouldering civil society organizations to create a positive social impact in the community.

The event consisted of many entertaining segments that brought joy to the children and their families and friends, like reading interactive stories, distributing toys and gifts, offering science and culture sessions, drawing and coloring segments, a unique photo booth, and more. The event was also joined by some of Kuwait’s renowned children’s theater actors like Dawood Hussain, Mohammed Al-Hemli, and Samah.
