Smile Initiative, an initiative of Bahrain Future Society for Youth that provides psychosocial support to children with cancer and their parents in Bahrain, celebrated the kingdom's National Days by distributing gifts to children with cancer.

The initiative's volunteers worked in small teams to distribute these gifts using a decorated bus that brought more joy and pleasure to the ill children. The event also introduced children to the origin of the National Days in Bahrain.

Chairman of Future Society for Youth Sabah Abdul Rahman Al Zayani confirmed that "Smile" initiative worked to organize this event despite the challenges of the pandemic, within its keenness to celebrate the national holidays, and as a reminder of the great civilizational achievements and the process of prosperity and development in light of the reform project of His Majesty the King, and the major gains of this project at all levels.

Al Zayani hailed the efforts of the "Smile" volunteers in organizing the event, and their keenness to take all precautionary measures to prevent COVID-19 infection, including sterilizing gifts before distribution, and maintaining social distancing, to protect the health of sick children, who have mainly weak immunity as a result of cancer.

“We congratulate HM the King and the people on the occasion of the National Day and the anniversary of His Majesty’s accession to the throne. We pray to God Almighty to preserve the Kingdom of Bahrain and perpetuate the blessing of security and safety.” Al Zayani concluded.
