Doha: McDonald’s in the GCC announced the launch of its second annual Family Time Forever campaign. This year entitled ‘A Day Offline’, the initiative encourages families from Qatar, and across the entire GCC to turn off their mobile phones, computers and television sets for one entire day tomorrow, and instead spend time together as a family.
With last year’s initiative reaching thousands of families across the region, the 2012 edition is expected to generate even more awareness and bring attention to the issue. To help parents and children enjoy the day together, an exciting range of initiatives has been planned at selected McDonald’s branches in Qatar. Visit www.mcdonaldsarabia.com for more information.
As an added incentive, phone vaults – phone-sized containers with adhesive closures – will be available at McDonald’s branches throughout Qatar to help parents resist the temptation of checking mobile devices.
