GIB hosts 75 schoolchildren

Manama, Sept. 1 (BNA): GIB recently held an event for 75 children of the bank’s employees, ages 2 to 12 years, who visited their parent’s office in the GIB headquarters. The schoolchildren were given the opportunity to see where their parents worked, what they do during the day, as well as to meet their parents’ colleagues. An arts and crafts gathering was then organized, where children had the opportunity to paint on traditional clay cashboxes that they could then take home as a souvenir from their day at the Bank. This event falls under GIB’s new Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Programme ‘WAGIB’, in association with GIB’s Social committee which aims to support local communities.
