Airtel Ghana has made a special donation to the National Hajj Board to support Ghanaian Pilgrims embarking on this year’s Hajj.

The donation made to members of the Board at the Hajj Village in Accra is in line with the company’s yearly commitment to support the Muslim community and Pilgrims.

The items comprised toiletries, sanitizers, disinfectants and a cash donation.

Presenting the items, Airtel Ghana’s Zonal Business Manager for Greater Accra, Kwame Osafo-Amoah said the annual Holy Pilgrimage is an important national activity – one that Airtel Ghana has been part of over the years.

He said consistent with the company’s annual tradition, Airtel was supporting this year’s event and to wish all Pilgrims the very best as they embark on the special assignment.

He said in addition to the donations, Airtel Ghana recently launched a special Hajj bundle offering all Pilgrims who subscribe, 200% discount on calls from Saudi Arabia to Ghana to ensure that customers stay in touch with their family and friends during the Pilgrimage.

“The Hajj Bundle is open to all new and existing customers and comes with up to 100 minutes of free incoming calls to Ghana with subscribers roaming either on Zain or STC Saudi Arabia whilst in Mecca. Airtel customers can subscribe to the bundle by simply recharging with GH¢50 or GH¢100, dialing *151# and selecting ‘roaming pack’ and the Hajj Bundle option”.

Members of the Hajj Board commended Airtel Ghana for consistently supporting the work of the Board and for introducing a bespoke voice and data roaming bundle that ensures pilgrims are always in touch with their loved ones whilst away in the Holy Land.
