!!خفف





Initiated by the Equate Local Petrochemical Company in Kuwait, the "خفف"/Khafif  (**"Lighten Up" ) campaign aims to address one of Kuwait's rising health scare- Obesity. 

Kuwaitis have one of the highest obesity rates in the world, I mean come on look around almost everyone is overweight and we all seem to be constantly on a diet.

"The latest study by Kuwait Nutrition Surveillance System indicates that the disease affects 80 % of Kuwait’s population. At least 38 % of males and 48.5 % of females are suffering from obesity in the country." 

This anti-obesity campaign is part of Equate's Corporate Social Responsibility Program. 

It's nice to see that local companies are engaging in social responsible programs and giving back to society in a positive way such as this, especially in our society where the average size seems to be a size large. 

Hoping more companies will adopt Social causes around here,
