Social Responsibility as a tool for developing Public Relations:
Mais Alghanim Restaurant aims to serve the nation with its highest quality of business operations by keeping itself committed towards the social welfare and well-being. To achieve this aim, the Company has set certain social responsibility goals and objectives. Social Responsibility goals serve as the basis for the Mais Alghanim Restaurant staff while they treat and deal with a variety of customers (Mais Alghanim Restaurant, 2011). At Mais Alghanim Restaurant, it is widely believed that a business organization should not just aim to make economic or financial growth; rather it should also contribute towards the social well-being of the community in which it operates (Jethwaney & Sarkar, 2009). Following are some social responsibility endeavors which Mais Alghanim Restaurant has achieved recently:

Blood...
Mais Alghanim Restaurant encourages its employees to give blood donations whenever it organizes this social welfare event. The primary purpose of blood donation is not to develop good public relations, but it is to awake the inner satisfaction among the Mais Alghanim Restaurant employees. Recently, Mais Alghanim Restaurant organized an event for this noble purpose in Sharq Restaurant. 45 Mais Alghanim Restaurant employees donated their blood and contributed to help the under-privileged and needy people of the society in this event. The Company also aims to organize such events on periodical basis so as to play its social responsibility part in the community where it has grown its business (Mais Alghanim Restaurant, 2011).
Blood donation; on one side, fulfills the social responsibility aims of the company, but ultimately acts as a strong tool for Public Relations Management on the other side. The needy people who are given the donated blood as well as the event sponsoring committees promote the Mais Alghanim business in the locality and on the Web. The videos and pictures are uploaded for its web incarnation visitors who watch them and come to know the noble aims of the Company (Mais Alghanim Restaurant, 2011).
