    Basma Al-Azawi

    Volunteer of the Month (September 2025)

    Basma started volunteering five months ago, to help man the front desk. Aside from this, she also makes herself available to support CBFY in different activities. She steps up whenever volunteer support is needed. Recently, she gained additional CBFY experience/knowledge when she started supporting CONNECT team at the CBE Welcome Centre.

    Her consistent presence in the office, and willingness to help in every way she can, proves her dedication and commitment to CBFY. Basma is always available to offer her service to anyone, anytime. She is a reliable and valued member of the team.

    On top of her administration skills, Basma is known for her selfless attitude who is willing to share her time and experience especially to the new volunteers.

    Fun fact: She loves to write, and in fact published a book which is now being sold in Amazon.
