National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) continues its “I Dream To Be” initiative, a first-of-a-kind initiative that aims at granting wishes for children with severe illnesses around Kuwait, giving them the chance to live their dreams.
Ascia Sayed 7 years old, is undergoing treatment at NBK Hospital and suffers from Leukemia, has always desired to learn how to cook and bake. NBK helped in making her dream come true in cooperation with the “Cooking Club”.
NBK welcomed Ascia and provided her with an engraved culinary apron and cap with her name on to be totally prepared to her experience. Ascia enjoyed a full experience learning from different cooking classes under the supervision of certified chefs in a safe, clean and healthy learning environment.
“Ascia’s dream to learn culinary arts is yet another wish granted through NBK’s initiative “I Dream To Be”. We are proud to be a part of the children’s dreams and expand our support to them as much as possible,” said Joanne Al Abdul Jaleel, NBK Public relations officer.
““I Dream To Be” initiative is a lifetime experience for children with life-threatening conditions,” she added. “This initiative is a great way to spread joy and show that there’s always a positive side to a difficult situation. We ask children what they want to be and try to fulfill that for them.”
NBK has been at the forefront of supporting Kuwait’s community through a range of initiatives towards education, health, sports and social responsibilities. NBK’s “I Dream To Be” initiative was launched in 2014 and is dedicated to always putting the child’s wish first. This initiative aims to improve a quality of life for children facing life-threatening illnesses. This unprecedented initiative aims at creating a sustainable momentum that transcends from the goodwill of a few to a commitment by the community as a whole.
