McDonald’s Qatar organised a series of “Gathering of Hope” events to celebrate and capture the ethos of Ramadan. As part of the new initiative, McDonald’s Qatar hosted a series of Iftar gatherings with its fervent customers together with the children and residents of Rumailah Hospital Children’s Rehabilitation Center at McDonald’s Airport Branch, Qatar Society Rehabilitation of Special Needs at McDonald’s Markiya branch and the Rumailah Hospital Psychiatric Department at McDonald’s Al Sadd branch recently.
Team members from McDonald’s Qatar welcomed the customers and families of the children with special needs and celebrated the gatherings with a host of fun and engaging activities over Iftar at their selected branches. The guests were treated to a range of special programmes put together by the highly adored McDonald’s characters who entertained the kids and surprised them with gifts and giveaways that further added to the celebrations.
