National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) visited both student residences in Kaifan and Shuwaikh areas to share Iftar and Suhoor banquets with the students and spent some good times with them, as part of "Do Good Deeds in Ramadan" program.
The visit was filled with family-friendly atmosphere, in which NBK expressed its support and encouragement to the students and how much it values their participation in the Iftar banquet as an initiative to make up for being unable to gather around one table with their families during the holy month of Ramadan.
"It gives us a great pleasure to share this banquet with our valued students, as they choose Kuwait to be their learning destination. We have introduced this new initiative of holding Iftar and suhoor banquets with our valued students in order to share our customs and traditions and to capture the unique ambiance of the holy month of Ramadan as we firmly believe that reaching out to the community is a deep-rooted Kuwaiti tradition”. Said Manal Faisal Al-Mattar, NBK Assistant General Manager of Public Relations and Communications.
Al-Mattar added that Kuwait University is a top rated academic initiation that highly values its students. As part of our annual “Do Good Deeds in Ramadan” program, we have included the university and its students as an integral part of our coverage to official institutions, community service societies and mosques, besides our other humanitarian and charitable initiatives dedicated to the holy month of Ramadan.
Al-Mattar pointed out that visiting the student residence felt like a family gathering, where we learned about the different habits and traditions related to the holy month of Ramadan in the GCC and neighboring countries. “We also aimed at establishing NBK’s consistent presence in various social occasions as part of being actively involved in the community and in line with our firm belief that the NBK’s corporate social responsibility initiatives are integral part of community development and porosity”, she added.
Head of the student residence department, Sharifa Al-Kandari, Head of the activities department Mai Al-Osaimi and residence controller Nada Al-Qabandi, as well as students welcomed NBK team led by the Bank’s executive management. Deputy residence controller Mubarak Al-Enezi and social worker Salman Boodai also welcomed NBK team at the student residence.
For over 20 years, NBK has carried out the "Do Good Deeds in Ramadan" program, which includes many events, contributions, social welfare and voluntary activities. This initiative is in line with NBK’s keenness to reach out to various social institutions and all sectors of the society, maintaining its leading position as a dedicated private institution that is keeping true to its CSR values through translating them into valuable programs and initiatives that have substantive social dimension.
