For example i tried to apply to a position in such campaigns in other countries (North America) .. Believe it or not they didn't even ask what my degree was or my GPA all they asked are my ideas and how can i help. On the other hand i applied for a volunteer job in couple of those campaigns in Kuwait and the middle east .. and the first thing they told me "send us your CV " and i never heard from them.

They have those associations but their work is very slow, they put too many excuses for publishing a tinny little information .. i got fed up from nagging day and night giving them solutions for easy publishing... no one helped and no one listened. Its either my words were crappy , or the way i said it or them. I still don't know, All i know is that my Teachers (PhD ) supported every step i took. I'm sorry for the negative comment! i hope they really do something FAST and frustrate us less. one thing…

The lack of awareness among the people -or general apathy despite of awareness- encourages companies to cut cost when it comes to socially beneficial campaigns. There is simply no marketing advantage in such a society! Hence, the money spent on such campaigns is financially unjustifiable. ----------- 2. What is u bangin' on about?? KFH is the biggest spender on charity! They donate a LOT of money to our brothers in Al Qaeda!! Afghanistan, Chechnya, Alabania, & even our Muslim brothers in the Kuwait Chapter of Al Qaeda benefit from their charity! Just check the 'local' and not 'financial' section of our newspapers...and you'll know I'm not joking!! 1.

I took a course on it a year ago with the international public relations association witch most of the companies mentioned above participated in, in my opinion if companies in kuwait actually start using CSR and sticking to one carouse maybe we can actually see a deference in our country “positive for a change” i think thats its great that you mintioned CSR in your post since It’s a subject that many people in this country lack to understand!

فعلا شركاتنا لازم يصير فيها جانب انساني مثل مافيها جانب استثماري او ربحي

وهالجانب لازم يكون انساني بحت يعني مو المقصود منه الدعايه

ابسط مثال شوف الغير مسلمين من بل غيتس وكذا مليونير اللي ماكو شي يدفعه انه يتبرع ومع ذلك شوف شكثر ملايين وبلايين يتبرعون فيها

الشي اللي يمكن ماتطرقت له بموضوعك ان وين يحطون مساهماتهم؟

هم بعد المساهمات كل ماصارت بجوانب أهم وتعود بالنفع على الدوله ويمكن الشركات نفسها كل مازادت الفايده

مثلا يدعمون بعثات سنويه للدول المتقدمه

يدعمون الابحاث الطبيه والعلمية

الدول المتقدمه تفرض على الشركات هالنوع من المساهمات في البحوث وغيره

اللي اقصده ان التبرعات نستفيد منها اقصى مايمكن

مع الاحترام لباقي مجالات التبرع لكن في شي مهم وفي شي اهم

والا شرايك :) ؟
