KUWAIT: Expanding on its impactful role as an engaged corporate citizen, Burgan Bank sponsored the KIPCO Asianet News Education Excellence Awards 2024 – Kuwait Edition, honoring the outstanding educational professionals and institutions that continue to devote their careers to empowering the future generations of Kuwait. This comes as part of Burgan’s comprehensive social responsibility program, which aims to advance the most vital sectors in Kuwait and recognize the exceptional talents whose dedication is pivotal to realizing the national 2035 Vision.

“We are honored to be part of this important event among some of Kuwait’s best educators who continue to build the foundations for a better and brighter future,” said Kholoud Al-Feeli, Deputy General Manager – Corporate Communications at Burgan Bank. “On our mission to contribute to realizing Kuwait’s 2035 Vision, it is essential that we recognize, honor, and support all individuals and institutions revolutionizing education, adapting to the young generations’ interests, and encouraging students to remain thirsty for knowledge outside the classroom.”

“On behalf of Burgan Bank, I would like to thank Asianet News, Al-Rayan Holding Co, KIPCO, and Metro Medical Center for bringing this ceremony to life and for dedicating a platform to recognizing and honoring the devoted educators who continue to guide our youths through their foundation years, inspiring them to realize their full potential and believe in themselves. I also wish to extend my sincerest gratitude to all the awardees for their exceptional hard work and dedication to being an inspiration, mentor, and friend to students who are yet to discover just how special and capable they are,” added Al-Feeli.

The ceremony, which took place at Fahaheel Al-Watanieh Indian Private School (DPS), saw the participation of 22 of Kuwait’s esteemed schools and was attended by honorable dignitaries including Shri Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi, Former Union Cabinet Minister of India; Dr Adarsh Swaika, Indian Ambassador to Kuwait; and Dr Ram Shankar Yadav, Regional Director of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).

It serves to note that Burgan Bank consistently contributes to educational facilities’ growth on academic and extracurricular fronts alike. Previous sponsorships include American United School’s (AUS) annual Art’s Night event as well as the National and Liberation Days carnival. The Bank also participated in the beautification of Sabah Al-Ahmad schools, as part of the “My Governorate is the Most Beautiful” campaign.
