The Ritz-Carlton, Doha has invited the community of Doha to “unite for a brighter future” during a family charity day to increase awareness on social and environmental issues. The event will be starting at 8am on Saturday, with a series of programmes designed to cater to the entire family.

The Ritz-Carlton, Doha has approached several non-profit organizations including the Red Crescent and Palestine Children’s Relief Fund to take part in this good-cause event. They will set up booths and directly engage with participants to promote their social and environmental projects. 

The day will start with a fun, four kilometer walk-a-thon, meaning that the participants can cover the distance at their own pace whether this means a walk, run or casual stroll. Physically challenged participants can also join in the excitement. The next sporting activity will be a swimming relay competition, engaging two members of the same family towards one common goal. 

Other fun family workshops will continue the day. A drawing competition for children, under the theme of “Green Qatar” will aim at educating youngsters in an entertaining way and creating early awareness towards a more sustainable environment.  The Peninsula
