Etihad Etisalat (Mobily), hosted a number of DSCA children on the occasion of the World Down syndrome Day. The tour included a friendly encounter with the Managing Director, Engineer Khalifa Al Shamsi and Mr. Ahmad Farroukh, Chief Executive Officer and a number of Mobily’s executives.

The tour witnessed a distribution of gifts to create joy and cheerfulness in the children’s hearts.  Mobily and DSCA tweeted through their official accounts on Twitter, which reflects the prominent role of the company toward social responsibility, which aims to enhance awareness about the pivotal role played by many charity associations within the community.  

Mobily had previously cooperated with DSCA through sending SNS messages to its subscribers in an effort to introduce the society with Down Syndrome, that affected a dear category in the community, especially children, and how to alleviate their suffering and integrate them as part of the society. 

The Down Syndrome Children Associating (DSCA) is putting a special effort through the World Day, which coincides on 21st March, to raise awareness about the disease and to communicate with the public on how to deal with this category of special needs. The DSCA is currently offering education and training for the children who suffer from Down syndrome since the early intervention period and also managed to establish a national training center for the training of instructors and teachers and rehabilitating them in the areas of Down syndrome and cases associated with it. 

It is worth mentioning that Mobily gives priority in supporting the programs of charity associations as part of its social responsibility programs either through sending free awareness SMS messages to its subscribers or through its official channels in social networking sites, in cooperation with a number of charity associations in the Kingdom.
