“Gergaoon”
On the evening of Sunday, 19 June 2016, ASU supported one of the popular activities in Ramadan “Gergaoon “. It is one of the most joyful celebrations in Ramadan especially for kids in Bahrain with all the candies and the treats they get that night. Gergaoon is celebrated in Bahrain and the other gulf countries at the 15th night of Ramadan. Children will wander from house to house while signing the traditional song of Gergaoon to ask for Gergaoon treats.
The celebration was patronized by Mr Yousif Al Thawadi member of the municipality council in collaboration with positive wings volunteer society. The event took place in Al Hidd/Muharraq and ASU Community Engagement Office was represented by Prof Saad Darwish and Ms. Hana Dowaisan who both distributed gifts to children. Many thanks to the VP Admin, Finance & Community Engagement, Dr. Mohammed Yousif for easing the financial donation for this event
