Community

Employees volunteer in the local community and support local charities, including the King Hussein Cancer Foundation, funding wheelchairs, physiotherapy and education for children with cerebral palsy through Green Wheelz and the Jordan River Foundation (JRF), helping to create economic opportunities for women in Jordan.
