Burgan Bank Makes Young Palliative Care Patient’s Dream Come True with the World Cup Experience of a Lifetime at FIFA Qatar 2022

Powered by its longstanding belief in people and community, Burgan Bank made a young palliative care patient’s lifetime dream of attending the World Cup a reality, with a trip to the semi-final match of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. The initiative was part of the strategic partnership between Burgan Bank and the Kuwait Association for Care of Children in Hospital (KACCH) and Bayt Abdullah Children's Hospice (BACCH).

Since its inception, Burgan Bank has carefully created and curated a comprehensive and well-rounded social responsibility program. The long-standing partnership with KACCH and BACCH comes as a natural extension of the Bank’s ethos and belief system, deeply echoing Burgan’s commitment to giving back to the Kuwaiti community and its people.

All the trip’s arrangements were swiftly facilitated by Burgan Bank to ensure that Mohammed and his mother had an unforgettable experience, starting from the tickets for the highly anticipated semifinal game, hotel accommodation, transportation services in Qatar, hotel concierge services and much more. 

On her part, Mrs. Kholoud Rida AlFeeli, Group Head - Marketing and Communications at Burgan Bank, stressed the importance of this initiative: “We take our social responsibility towards our community to heart, and are determined to have a positive impact on our society. Burgan Bank is always keen on pursuing big initiatives that drive social development and small gestures that help spread joy and well-being amongst people. We look at every social campaign or program we run as a major achievement; reflecting our values and our driven by you culture.”  

The father of young Mohammed thanked the teams from Burgan Bank, KAACH and BACCH for their efforts to bring joy and fun into his son’s life; fulfilling a lifelong dream and giving the young boy a one-of-a-kind, priceless experience,

This latest humanitarian effort is part of Burgan Bank’s social responsibility program, which raises awareness of important and influential causes within the community, while improving social welfare by contributing to educational, cultural, social and health initiatives.
