RCSI Bahrain this week presented a cheque for over BD1200 to the Bahrain Red Crescent (BRC) Society.
The money was raised primarily through events organised as part of RCSI Bahrains second annual Health Week, which took place last month, but also included contributions by several other student clubs and societies and charity projects.
The cheque was presented to BRC Secretary General, Dr Fawzi Amin, by RCSI Bahrains Chief Operating Officer (COO), Stephen Harrison-Mirfield and will be directed towards providing dignity kits to displaced people, both locally and regionally, in crisis situations.
Launched by the SRC team in 2015 with the aim of promoting healthy lifestyle among staff and students, RCSI Bahrains Health Week programme falls in line with the universitys overall objective of advancing human health in Bahrain.
