Arab Bank Hosts Ramadan Activities for Children at QRFCC

AMMAN – As part of its sustainable partnership with the Jordan River Foundation, Arab Bank hosted a Ramadan Iftar at the Queen Rania Family and Child Center where 30 bank volunteers engaged with 100 children in a series of activities addressing child safety and protection. Activities included sessions addressing self empowerment via Beit Shgeer, and Salhoof’s interactive puppet show. Catering was offered by JRF’s Al Karma Kitchen; a social enterprise empowering women who rely on culinary arts for a living.

Launched in 1997, the Jordan River Child Safety Program (JRCSP) is the result of Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah’s relentless efforts to place the welfare of children at the forefront of national policy agendas. The program aims to promote child protection and safety, and enhance positive child rearing practices by approaching the family as a whole unit.

Arab Bank continues to contribute to the development of communities through diverse initiatives and activities launched under its Corporate Social Responsibility program, "Together", addressing health, poverty alleviation, environmental protection, education, orphan support, and women empowerment.
