LOYAC celebrates winning projects

KUWAIT: During its annual Ramadan ghabqa, LOYAC honored three entrepreneurial projects that won the Najiba Al-Sayed Yaqoub Al-Rifai Award, which was launched this year to honor the winners of the “Kun-Tinyo” program for social entrepreneurship. Farea Al-Saqqaf, Chairman and Managing Director of LOYAC and LOYAC Art Academy (LAPA), commenced the ceremony with an opening speech in which she expressed her happiness on this occasion and introduced the winning projects.

“There is nothing more beloved to my heart than supporting and empowering young people to launch their own projects that will serve their communities,” Saqqaf said. “Tonight, we celebrate the honoring of three distinguished projects in the Kontinue program for community leadership. Each one carries an important humanitarian and societal issue, such as the issue of developing digital technical skills for autistic youth who are distinguished by their intelligence, which is an untapped project that won first place, then the Two Point OH project, which won second place for solutions to the problem of environmental pollution through a digital platform that connects individual consumers, companies and institutions with companies that recycle their waste or food banks.
