Qatargas organized a day of fun and entertainment for nearly 150 children from Qatar Orphan Foundation (Dhreima) at its winter camp in the Sealine area. The children were hosted by Qatargas as part of the community engagement aspect of its corporate social responsibility.
The children enjoyed the various facilities available at the camp including bouncy castles, video games, table tennis, billiards and volleyball. Other entertainment activities on offer included henna and face painting.
In addition to enjoying themselves with fun and games, the children also received valuable information regarding health related topics. The Qatargas Medical Team delivered interactive presentations on dental health and hand hygiene.
