When Mr. Marc Harb first contacted me back in April
of 2011, he proposed the notion of Bank Audi as being
the official bank within the KidzMondo theme park.
Considering that the KidzMondo concept is the first
of its kind in the nation, Bank Audi has never had the
opportunity to contribute so much to the development
of our young people, so we were naturally quite excited
about the potential such a collaboration would bring to
both of our brands.
As part of our sponsorship agreement with KidzMondo,
Bank Audi will be operating a replica branch within
the park, from which all the economic activity for the
KidzMondo city will originate. Visiting children will be able
to cash the checks they receive upon entering to obtain
the park’s currency, the Kidlar. Children will also be able to
learn more about the world of banking, finance and fiscal
management through other available transactions, such
as depositing the Kidlars they earn throughout the park
for future purchases. Inside our KidzMondo branch, we’ll
also have a lifelike vault section, to sensitize kids to the
important role of banks in real life.
As any local parent could tell you, Lebanon lacks variety
of avenues for children to be entertained and educated at
the same time. The concept behind KidzMondo is unique,
as it enables children to learn about real life issues while
still having fun. I strongly believe in the future success
of this project, and in our collaboration plans. Given
the uniqueness of the idea and its likely success, this
project has justifiably attracted all the biggest, and most
recognizable brands in Lebanon, and we’re happy to be
part of this venture.
