Qatar Charity (QC) has announced that it has received a donation of QR250,000 from LuLu Hypermarket Group - Qatar as a contribution to QC’s projects through the “Shop & Donate” drive launched by LuLu Hypermarket Group during the holy month of Ramadan.

This donation comes in support of Qatar Charity’s “Ramadan, the Gift of Giving” campaign for this year. Qatar Charity received a cheque of QR250,000 from Shaijan M O, regional director of LuLu Hypermarket – Qatar, in the presence of Shanavas P M, regional manager of LuLu Hypermarket, and other officials from Lulu and Qatar Charity.

On receiving the donation, Qatar Charity thanked LuLu Hypermarket Group for its contribution, acknowledging its effort during Ramadan in collecting donations through its “Shop & Donate” campaign. Qatar Charity also hoped that other companies would follow the example of LuLu Hypermarket in doing good and supporting charity projects within and outside Qatar. 

Qatar Charity appreciated LuLu’s support for its “Ramadan, the Gift of Giving” campaign, noting that LuLu’s support was a “sincere demonstration of how to promote humanitarian activism, which positively reflects the company’s success in various fields.”

“In co-operation with Qatar Charity, LuLu is looking forward to playing an important role on the social responsibility programme,” said Shaijan M O, adding that the “Shop & Donate” campaign managed to successfully raise QR250,000.

Further, he stressed that LuLu Hypermarket would continue its support for charitable projects and carry on promoting humanitarian work along with Qatar Charity.

It is worth mentioning that Qatar Charity has previously signed several co-operation agreements with LuLu Hypermarket - Qatar. The first allows customers to donate riyal and dirham fractions when paying purchase bills at various LuLu Hypermarket outlets, in order to support charitable projects within and outside Qatar. 

The second agreement promotes Qatar Charity’s Khair Cards through LuLu’s outlets to promote charity among shoppers, while the third agreement involves a co-operation for the “Shop & Donate” campaign.
