For the fourth consecutive year, Kuwait International Bank (KIB) announced its sponsorship of the 6th Ideal Mother Award honoring mothers of disabled children. The award is organized annually by Al Kharafi Activity Kids Center, under the patronage of the President of the Kuwait Foundation for Disabled Children, Sabeeka Al-Jasser. Awards will be presented on April 7, honoring the hard work and dedication of mothers of children with mental disabilities.
A press conference was recently held to announce the winners of this year’s award, with winners from Kuwait, the GCC and the Arab region. The press conference was attended by the Secretary General and the President of the organizing committee for the Ideal Mother Award, as well as a diverse group of participating parties and sponsors.
On this occasion, Fahad Alsarhan, Team leader of the Corporate Communications Unit at the Bank, commended all mothers on the occasion of Mother’s Day and also congratulated the winners of the 6th Ideal Mother Award. He continued by saying: “We believe in the importance of this award, which recognizes the pivotal role parents play in the lives of children with mental disabilities. This is especially true of mothers, who not only nurture their children but also push them to overcome their disabilities, helping them channel these very disabilities into positive action for the benefit of themselves and their community. For that reason, KIB continues to lend its support to this event every year, reflecting the Bank’s ongoing commitment to supporting persons with disabilities in the local community.”
Alsarhan also pointed out that this sponsorship came as part of KIB’s strategy to support people with disabilities. Accordingly, the Bank has recently redesigned six of its branches in order to provide for more easily accessible banking services that accommodate the needs of customers with special needs, including those who are visually impaired and deaf.
At the end of his statement, Alsarhan lauded the efforts of all organizers of this humanitarian award, wishing all parties involved success in their ongoing efforts. He also noted that KIB will continue to be a supporter of their various impactful activities and initiatives.
