KUWAIT: Burgan Bank reiterated its support to the Kuwait Association for Care of Children in Hospital (KACCH) by presenting its annual donation to the association this season. Maintaining its strong 19 year-long partnership, the financial aid ensures access to optimal healthcare within pediatric facilities at various health institutions for the children and their families.

This partnership is part of Burgan Bank's strategic vision to actively support and give back to the local community in line with the bank's values. Today, corporate social responsibility has become a national duty and a human value for the advancement of society, achieving sustainability, and raising the level of awareness and culture of individuals on humanitarian issues.

KACCH is a non-profit organization that operates child life programs supported by child life specialists and play leaders across seven government hospitals in Kuwait. KACCH staff work closely with nurses, doctors, and other healthcare professional to reduce the negative impact of hospitalization and create a happier experience for sick children and their families.

Burgan Bank's support to this initiative falls under its recently launched full-fledged community program entitled 'ENGAGE' - Together to be the change. This program sheds light on important aspects affecting every segment of the society by promoting social welfare through educational, cultural, social and health initiatives. Burgan Bank's approach to 'ENGAGE' begins with a vital principle that as a Kuwaiti financial institution, its conduct and policies should be aligned with the needs and interests of the Kuwaiti society.
