Katara's celebration of Garangao night was characterised by a range of activities and events that brought joy to children who had to stay home in a break from the tradition that would have seen them visiting houses to get gifts.
Immediately after Iftar time, Katara volunteers started the festivity by organising a tour that covered various parts of Qatar and distributed gifts to children.
The children also listened to their beloved Garangao songs through the drones launched by Katara in a tour that also covered various regions.
Katara volunteers had packed the gifts in line with all health, safety and security measures.
