Joud Al Islami shares with the children of Alia School the joy of returning to school

The “Jood” volunteer team of Bahrain Islamic Bank, in cooperation with Alia School, organized an interactive community event under the slogan “Bahrain is fine… with your smile.” The initiative aimed to promote the concept of true integration for children of determination and those on the autism spectrum, by integrating them with their peers in a stimulating educational environment that supports national belonging and consolidates the values ​​of diversity and acceptance in society.

The event included a series of sensory and educational activities that were specifically designed to suit the various cognitive styles of children, where volunteer employees from the bank participated in interactive activities that included coloring a group painting of the flag of the Kingdom of Bahrain, and awareness stations to teach concepts of personal safety, which contributes to supporting children’s mental health and enhancing their self-confidence.

The event was characterized by the application of precise standards to take into account special needs, which included providing a “calm down corner” and using visual aids to ensure a positive and safe experience for all participants. This initiative comes within Bahrain Islamic Bank’s strategy for social responsibility, which focuses on innovation in giving and community service through the Jood Islamic Bank team.
