LuLu Raises $34K for Qatar Charity Through Customer Campaign

When customers at LuLu Hypermarket Qatar added a few extra riyals to their grocery bills during Ramadan, they helped raise QAR 125,000 for humanitarian projects around the world. The retailer's annual "Shop & Donate" campaign made it easy for everyday shoppers to become part of something bigger.

LuLu Hypermarket presented the donation to Qatar Charity in April 2026 at a ceremony on D-Ring Road in Doha. Regional Director Shanavas P M handed the check to Amer Mohammed AlBesiri, Deputy Director of Donor Relations at Qatar Charity.

The campaign invited customers to donate at checkout counters across all LuLu stores in Qatar. Every small contribution from shoppers added up to meaningful support for families and communities facing hardship.

Amer Mohammed AlBesiri thanked LuLu for its commitment to community welfare. He explained that Qatar Charity's Charity Partner Programme creates opportunities for businesses to join humanitarian efforts that reach people worldwide.

Shanavas P M said the campaign gives customers a chance to make a real difference through their everyday shopping. He praised Qatar Charity's dedication to helping vulnerable communities and confirmed LuLu's commitment to continuing the partnership.

The Ripple Effect

This donation represents eight years of partnership between LuLu Hypermarket Qatar and Qatar Charity. Together, they've built multiple ways for customers to give back, from checkout donations to promoting "Khair Cards" that spread generosity throughout the community.

The collaboration shows how retailers can turn routine transactions into opportunities for compassion. Customers don't need to write big checks or attend fundraising galas to help. They just need to say yes when asked if they'd like to add a donation to their grocery bill.

The QAR 125,000 raised will support Qatar Charity's humanitarian and development programs, providing essential assistance to people who need it most. Every shopping trip became a chance to offer hope and dignity to someone facing difficult circumstances.

This partnership proves that corporate social responsibility works best when it includes everyone, turning millions of small acts of kindness into substantial support for humanitarian causes.
