Muscat: In line with its social responsibility initiatives, the Public Establishment for Industrial Estates – Madayn has launched its annual Ramadan charity campaign to distribute Omani products to families with limited income in the various governorates of the Sultanate. The campaign comes as part of Madayn’s Made in Oman initiative and coordination with several Omani companies and factories.
Madayn’s Social Responsibility Department was assigned to bring together all the donations from the factories as well as purchase other necessary products and supplies, and finally arrange them in boxes for distribution. The Ramadan donation boxes were packed by the department team in cooperation with Eshrakat Amal team, which works under Dar Al Atta’a Association.
In view of COVID-19 outbreak, Madayn has supplied a number of the donation boxes to Oman Charitable Organisation for distribution among families affected by this pandemic in Muscat governorate. The distribution will continue to families in other governorates during this week.
The companies that have contributed this year in the Ramadan charity campaign include Areej Vegetable Oils and Derivatives, Sweets of Oman, Shahi Foods and Spices, Oasis Water Company, National Tea Company, National United Dates Company, National Detergent Company, Nizwa Food Industries, National Biscuit Industries, Oman Flour Mills, Oman Foodstuff Factory, Golden Baskets International, Omani Vegetable Oils and Derivatives, Al Bahja Group, Danat A'Zaman Company (Al Deyafa), Salalah Mills, Salalah Macaroni Company, and Muscat Food Industries.
It should be noted that this Ramadan charity campaign comes along the lines of the efforts undertaken by Madayn to organise and support social responsibility activities. In the past few years, Madayn has introduced a series of initiatives to activate its policies and objectives that contribute to achieving sustainable partnership and development. In this regard, Madayn formed its Social Responsibility Department in November 2017 to serve as an umbrella of all social responsibility activities and programmes in cooperation with Madayn’s various industrial cities.
