AMMAN: The Kuwaiti Embassy in Jordan participated in the 61st annual International Diplomatic Corps Charity Bazaar, organized by the Jordanian Um Al Hussein Charity Association in cooperation with accredited diplomatic missions and under the supervision of the Jordanian Foreign Ministry. Kuwaiti Ambassador to Jordan Hamad Al-Marri told KUNA that the Embassy’s participation reflects Kuwait’s continued commitment to supporting humanitarian and charitable initiatives and promoting social solidarity with the most vulnerable segments of society.
He added that the bazaar highlights cooperation and cultural exchange between nations and provides a unique opportunity to experience the heritage and civilizational diversity of participating countries. Al-Marri emphasized that Kuwaiti embassies worldwide, under the directives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, are always keen to participate in events that combine humanitarian work with cultural engagement.
He noted that the patronage of Princess Basma bint Talal underscores Jordan’s steadfast commitment to charitable work and reflects the shared values between the two brotherly countries in supporting and empowering humanity. “The noble efforts of the Um Al Hussein Charity to care for children and provide them with a safe and supportive environment is an inspiring model of humanitarian work that we in Kuwait are keen to support and enhance,” he said. During the event, Ambassador Al-Marri and members of the Kuwaiti Embassy presented an honorary shield to Princess Basma in recognition of her patronage of the bazaar and her ongoing contributions to the Um Al Hussein Charity.
