Ooredoo has supported Qatar Cancer Society’s activities through a monetary donation as part of the telecom operator’s Corporate Social Responsibility programme and in line with Qatar National Vision 2030, which focuses on investing in human health.
The donation is Ooredoo’s contribution to achieving QCS’ vision to be a community partnership platform to make Qatar a leader in cancer prevention and control, said a press statement from QCS.
Dr Dera Al Dosari, director of Resources Development Department at QCS, thanked Ooredoo for the kind gesture in support of the Society, pointing to the previous cooperation between the two sides in raising public awareness of cancer through the establishment of the Ooredoo Cancer Awareness Center in 2017.
He affirmed that QCS will continue efforts to achieve its mission to prevent cancer and control its burden in Qatar by working with partners to educate the community, and to support, empower and advocate for individuals living with cancer, with engaging in professional development and scientific research in the field of cancer.
Pointing to the importance of community partnerships in fighting cancer, he stressed that addressing cancer requires concerted efforts and constant co-operation between all institutions and agencies in the state, as QCS cannot operate in isolation from the others.
Sabah Rabiah Al Kuwari, director PR at Ooredoo, said: “We’re committed to supporting the communities in which we operate, a commitment which is an integral part of our Corporate Social Responsibility strategy as we work towards achieving Qatar National Vision 2030. Healthcare is vital to the wellbeing of our communities, and in particular, to support the most vulnerable members. We are proud to be working with Qatar Cancer Society in their efforts to fight cancer and take care of patients and their families.”
