Consistent with its involvement in community outreach, Kuwait Telecommunications Company VIVA invests in the ‘Iftar Saem’ program, to assist in offering those in need with the proper nourishment during the Holy month of Ramadan.

VIVA remains active during the Holy month of Ramadan with its involvement in charitable donations, helping to host the ‘Iftar Saem’ program, to ensure that each fasting Muslim in need is breaking their fast with a healthy, warm meal.
