QATARGAS SHARES WORLD CUP JOY WITH SOUTH KOREAN CHILDREN

Qatar was the international epicenter of football during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. As a sport known to unite people across the world, Qatargas’ Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) project, aptly titled ‘Pass the Joy’, seized the opportunity to do just that – passing joy to the children of the Myoungryun Child Welfare Centre in South Korea with football kits and associated gear.

Speaking at a ceremony held at the center, Mashel Attiq Al-Merekhi, General Manager of Qatargas’ Korea Liaison Office (KLO), acknowledged Myoungryun’s proud contribution to the foster care system, and its history of caring for the developmental needs of vulnerable children, providing them with better opportunities to reach their full potential as they successfully transition into adulthood.

The kits included footballs, sports shoes, team jerseys, goalposts, and nets, in addition to other amenities for the centre.

Mashel Al-Merekhi added, “As the host country of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, it gives all of us in Qatar great pleasure to pass the joy of this historic event to children in South Korea.”

Qatargas KLO has undertaken various CSR initiatives in South Korea for the past 13 years, mostly aimed at supporting children.
