Press Release

 

City Centre Bahrain, the premier shopping, entertainment, and lifestyle destination in the Kingdom, has collaborated with Bahrain Red Crescent Society to launch an initiative in support of the people of Lebanon. The campaign, spearheaded by Majid al Futtaim, is a regional initiative across all its shopping malls to raise and collect donations that will be distributed to Lebanese people in need affected by the blast in Beirut.  

Shoppers and visitors to City Centre Bahrain as well as members of their respective wider communities, are urged to support the people of Lebanon through financial donations, cash or via credit cards. The collected funds will be managed and distributed in Lebanon by the Bahrain Red Crescent Society. 

Duaij Al Rumaihi, Senior Mall Manager at City Centre Bahrain said, "Majid Al Futtaim is committed to supporting the communities and markets in which it operates and the Ya Beirut campaign is a testament of us being a responsible corporate citizen and extending our support to those in need. The tragic events in Lebanon have deeply moved us and we understand that these are incredibly testing times for Lebanese people across the world."

"This donation initiative is our contribution to help rebuild the city and we are incredibly grateful for the support of the Bahrain Red Crescent Society in enabling us to take this forward."

Visitors and shoppers are encouraged to extend their financial donations at the 'Ya Beirut' donation box located in front of gate 3 at City Centre Bahrain.
