BLUE BAND MARGARINE AND SPECIAL OLYMPICS PAKISTAN JOIN HANDS FOR A MORE INCLUSIVE SOCIETY


Blue Bandlaunched its campaign ‘AchaiBarhnay Do’ this year with the aim to create a more inclusive environment for kids all over Pakistan. Blue Band is Pakistan’s leading spreads brand enjoyed all over Pakistan for over 25 years. It is a daily source of essential fats and vitamins that help children to grow, develop and thrive.
The brand has long been an advocate of children’s growth and development. Society puts a lot of focus on child’s health and wellbeing which is imperative, however, often the most important lessons of empathy and acceptance that are essential for character building are missed. Blue Band aims to reinforce the importance of social inclusion for parents/guardians to teach kids the idea removing barriers for differently-abled kids through this initiative.
Blue Band has not only started the conversation around inclusion, but is making an effort to further the discussion by joining hands with Special Olympics Pakistan to organize the ‘Both Buddy & Me’ race. The race will be conducted at Pakistan’s largest inflatable race course where kids will be paired up in a buddy system with differently abled kids to finish the obstacle course together as a team. This will help bring the kids closer, whilst reducing barriers for differently abled kids through an opportunity to showcase their skills in sports and games. The race will be held on September 17th at Beach Luxury Hotel.
Director Foods & Refreshment Unilever, Farheen Salman said, “This event will not only bring the topic of inclusion to the forefront, but also provide the start of an actionable and meaningful movement about character development. Children are the future and we need to make every effort to nurture an environment where people of all abilities feel safe, included and accepted and are given a chance to participate to create a more tolerant and well-rounded Pakistan.”
Founder Special Olympics Pakistan Ronak Lakhani expressed her appreciation for Blue Band’s initiative, adding ‘This event is a step towards spreading awareness. Join us on 17th September 2017 to celebrate inclusion and spread the goodness. AchaiBarhnay Do.’
