UPAC has supported the Kuwait Red Crescent Society (KRCS) for its latest campaign “Humanitarian Aid for Rohingya.” The campaign raised funds to support the Rohingya refugees that require humanitarian and financial support to secure basic necessities such as food, water and healthcare. UPAC employees raised money, with the company matching the total amount raised.
Nadia Akil, CEO of UPAC said: “I am proud to see UPAC’s employees involved with important humanitarian issues occurring around the world. Thousands of Rohingya families have escaped extreme violence in Myanmar, the majority of which are women and children suffering unthinkable humanitarian and life threatening conditions. Being socially responsible is important for us, and we aim to continue supporting those in dire need of assistance.”
In 2017, UPAC had partnered with KRCS across the year supporting various campaigns that help those in need. Most recently UPAC had donated money to the “Humanitarian Aid for Rohingya” campaign which aimed at raising funds to financially support underprivileged families in Kuwait to cover their children’s basic educational needs.
