QNET: A catalyst for community development and social responsibility

As the world marks World Humanitarian Day on August 19, recognising the significance of humanitarian workers and organisations in assisting those in need, QNET, a global lifestyle, and wellness-focused direct-selling company, has emerged as a shining example of a business that prioritises social responsibility and actively promotes community development.

Driven by its core philosophy of RYTHM (Raise Yourself To Help Mankind), QNET is committed to making a positive impact and has implemented various initiatives that embody the essence of corporate social responsibility.

Amidst the numerous crises communities face worldwide, QNET has consistently demonstrated its unwavering commitment to alleviating suffering and rebuilding lives. A recent example of this commitment was observed during the devastating earthquake in the Türkiye-Syria border, which impacted more than ten cities and displaced over three million people. In response to this tragedy, QNET promptly mobilised its resources and activated its global network.

Cem Geyik, the regional general manager of QNET in Turkey, expressed heartfelt empathy, stating: "We stand shoulder to shoulder with the people of Türkiye during this challenging time and will spare no effort in helping them rebuild their lives."

In the aftermath of the earthquake, QNET employees in Turkey voluntarily participated in ongoing aid projects. Teaming up with World Human Relief (WHR), a renowned humanitarian organisation, QNET worked tirelessly to deliver critical aid to the affected families. The combined efforts of QNET's employees and distributors resulted in the distribution of hundreds of food packages directly to those in need. In Hatay Province, which was heavily impacted by aftershocks, QNET employees collaborated with the Genç Hayat Foundation to provide hot meals and essential goods to over 2000 people. Furthermore, to support the displaced earthquake survivors, QNET extended its assistance by providing 400 disaster relief packages containing essential items such as toiletries and food. The company also donated over 1.2 million Turkish Lira through WHR, ensuring that critical resources reached those most in need.

QNET has extended its support to UNICEF, offering aid to thousands of children and families in Türkiye and Syria. This generous contribution aims to assist UNICEF's teams on the ground in providing crucial humanitarian aid, catering to the urgent needs of some of the most vulnerable children in the world.

Another notable initiative undertaken by QNET is its Ramadan Giving program. During the holy month of Ramadan, QNET extends its support to vulnerable communities in approximately 50 countries. Recognising the heightened need during this period, QNET employees and distributors join forces to provide food, groceries, daily essentials, medicines, and more to those most in need. Some highlights from QNET's 2023 Ramadan outreach include:

Organising a Ramadan fest for 150 labourers at the Ajman in the UAE labour camp and joined forces with the Misr El Kheir Foundation to provide 1000 iftar meals to underprivileged communities in Cairo, Egypt.

Donating gift vouchers to the children of Association Al Amal, a non-profit organisation supporting autistic and disabled children in Morocco. These gift vouchers allowed them to purchase clothes and celebrate Eid Al Fitr.

Gifting food kits to ensure the children from the Cherubs Foundation International and Compassion Is Love Home in Ghana have nutritious meals.
