Lebara charity helps 1,0000 disadvantaged kids in education

TELECOM operator Lebara has raised €1m in a charity initiative that will help pay for the education of 100,000 disadvantaged children in ten countries.

As part of its 10-year anniversary celebrations, Lebara pledged to donate one per cent from customer top-ups in each of its eight markets globally to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).

Lebara group CEO Yoganathan Ratheesan said: ‘Our customers are the lifeblood of the company and it’s through their commitment and loyalty that we are able to give back through our charity projects.’

Lebara’s funds will help children in Colombia, Ghana, India, Morocco, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, Poland, Romania and Turkey.
