As part of its Ramadan Drive, the National Bank of Bahrain (NBB) distributed coupons to 57 local charities and associations registered with the Ministry of Labour and Social Development.
According to Trade Arabia, this annual initiative aims to provide Bahraini families in need with added support to help them prepare for the holy month and has been part of NBB’s Donations and Contributions Programme since 2004, which is dedicated to providing for the less privileged members of the local community.
The coupons are to benefit more than 7,500 Bahraini families, who will be able to redeem them at a number of supermarkets across the kingdom.
This year, in light of the challenging situation, NBB has increased its collaboration to include more supermarkets and has extended its reach to cover more households and associations, than in previous years.
