Grand Hyatt Doha Hotel & Villas collaborated with Qatar Cancer Society to host an Iftar for cancer survivors and patients in the hotel’s ballroom on 11 June 2016 in celebration of the spirit of love that characterizes the holy month of Ramadan. The ballroom witnessed over 200 guests including guests of honour Shaikh Hasan AlHussaini, Sheikha Athba Bint Thamer Al-Thani, Shaikha Maysoon Bint AbdulAziz Al-Thani and Mrs.Mona Al Sulaiti.

“Hyatt& global corporate responsibility platform, Hyatt Thrive, is designed to help make our communities places where our associates are proud to work, our guests want to visit, and our neighbours want to live,” says General Manager Christoph K. Franzen. “To achieve our goals, Hyatt Thrive focuses on four areas that we believe are essential to a thriving community, such as environmental sustainability, economic development, investment, education and personal advancement. The goal relevant in this particular project is health and wellness.”

The Qatar Cancer Society was founded with the sole purpose of combating cancer and raising awareness of preventive measures, early detection, treatment and survival.

Commenting on the collaboration, H.E. Sheikh Khalid bin Jabor Al Thani, the Chairman of Qatar Cancer Society, said: “The Qatar Cancer Society realises the importance of this initiative and what it represents to cancer patients and their families. We thank Grand Hyatt Doha for supporting this noble cause and hope the ongoing efforts achieve the goals set forth.”
