In Collaboration with “Kaaf Humanitarian” Bahrain Development Bank Supports Families Affected by Rainfall

Bahrain Development Bank, the leading bank in supporting small and medium enterprises in the Kingdom of Bahrain, has initiated support for families affected by recent rainfall. This effort is in collaboration with the Kaaf Humanitarian. The bank has provided financial donations to support the maintenance and repair of the homes of the affected families, and its employees plan to volunteer to assist in these maintenance and repair efforts. This initiative comes in light of the recent wave of heavy rainfall that swept across the Kingdom of Bahrain. It aligns with the bank’s commitment to social responsibility, which compels it to give back to the community by striving to make a positive impact and supporting its members. The families selected for this support were identified based on urgent needs, assessed in partnership with “Kaaf”. Commenting on this initiative, Mr. Ali Al-Aradi, Chief Banking Officer at Bahrain Development Bank, said: “We owe a debt of gratitude to the community we belong to, and we continuously seek to provide support to various entities and groups. Driven by this responsibility, we have decided to assist families whose homes were damaged by the recent heavy rains in Bahrain, in collaboration with Kaaf Humanitarian, a leader in charitable and developmental initiatives. We sympathize with these families and hope that this initiative, even if in a small way, helps alleviate their suffering and ensures they have safe and adequate housing.” It is noteworthy that Kaaf Humanitarian recently launched an urgent campaign to assist families affected by the recent rainfall. A comprehensive initiative was initiated to collect information about the affected families and provide them with urgent assistance. To this end, an online platform was opened for the affected families to register their urgent needs and receive support requests. A specialized team from Kaaf has been dedicated to studying these requests and assessing the level of need for assistance. Bahrain Development Bank continues to provide support to various business sectors in Bahrain, as well as different entities and individuals on its soil. This is driven by its belief in its responsibility towards the nation. The bank is constantly committed to supporting quality community initiatives and coordinating joint efforts that help address various challenges and crises, ultimately serving the Bahraini community.
