Ooredoo has announced a QR10m donation to the Qatar Charity and Qatar Red Crescent,which will support their humanitarian efforts in Nepal, after the devastating earthquake.
The UN estimates that eight million people have been affected by the earthquake, and that 2.8 million people have been displaced by it. The donation has been made possible by Ooredoo’s Easy-to-Remember Number Fund, which raises money for charity through the auction of prestigious mobile phone numbers.
As well as the donation, Ooredoo is encouraging employees and customers to donate money towards several charities working in the country to support their emergency appeal for healthcare, shelter, water, sanitation support and to restore family links.
Customers can donate to the Qatar Charity and the Qatar Red Crescent via Ooredoo’s nationwide Self Service Machine network.
