Dubai. May 2023. Sennheiser Middle East gifted select audio equipment and accessories from its own range along with sensory goods sourced from the market to fulfil a part of Al Noor Training Centre’s ‘wish list’ this Ramadan. Sennheiser Middle East’s gifts will be utilised in the school auditorium to improve its sound and elevate the experience of users.
As one of Dubai’s oldest centres for training students with disability, Al Noor has been bettering the lives of people of determination for more than 40 years. The work requires high resources, and the operations are partly financed by the generosity of donors. The centre maintains an active ‘wish list’ of products for donors who prefer to contribute in kind.
The Training Centre auditorium is the hub of physical activities enjoyed by the students. Superior sound will enhance the experience of those who use the facility and the leisure goods gifted by Sennheiser Middle East are expected to improve the overall quality of life for the students, making their recreation time more enjoyable and engaging.
Al Noor Director Ms Ranjini Ramnath says,” Al Noor is delighted to have these gifts from Sennheiser Middle East. Picked from our wish list makes them even more meaningful. The systems gifted by Sennheiser will enhance the audio experience in our auditorium, which is a boon to the school. Our auditorium is used regularly by students for various activities. We were happy to receive the entire Sennheiser Middle East team at the school and share our initiatives with them. We depend on Corporates like Sennheiser to be able to offer quality assistance to our students.”
Shraddha Mukul, Marketing Manager, Sennheiser Middle East said “Sennheiser Middle East is delighted to help Al Noor Training Centre. As an establishment with more than 40 years of assisting students of determination to overcome varied challenges, we are happy that some of our audio products will help them, and we wanted to add other goods with the idea of improving learning time among the students. Our team’s visit to Al Noor has been an enlightening experience.”
Al Noor Training Centre has a high teacher-student ratio to ensure adequate attention is paid to students. The fees charged to parents are comparable to those at other schools as the balance is financed by the community through numerous initiatives. Sennheiser Middle East’s generous donation of audio equipment and leisure goods to Al Noor Training Centre is a testament to social responsibility and community welfare. The contribution will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the lives of the students and is a shining example of the difference that corporate support can make in society.
