Best Social Humanitarian Initiative of private sector institutions (Noor Boubyan Initiative)
The 2019’s Noor Boubyan Initiative for eyesight-restoration operations in Africa has made a great achievement by earning the Award for the Best Social Humanitarian Initiative of private sector institutions at the GCC level.
The initiative is organized annually by the bank in cooperation with the International Islamic Charitable Organization and Al-Darayn Volunteer Team, and it has successfully restored the eyesight of more than 10 thousand persons in a number of African countries over 4 years.
This could be the first initiative of its kind to be fully undertaken by a Kuwaiti bank hand in hand with the competent entities, with the participation of Kuwaiti ophthalmologists who donated their full time and effort to help this campaign be a success along with a number of volunteers from the bank’s staff.”
