“Through this initiative, we will be able to make these children’s dreams come true and help their parents throughout this difficult time.

Our goal is to put a smile on the children’s faces and encourage everyone to become part of a nation-wide initiative.” NBB has announced its support of the KHK Initiative with Smile for Children with Cancer as part of His Highness’ initiatives to support the Kingdom’s social wellbeing through ongoing humanitarian efforts.
