IKEA has celebrated the most romantic day of the year with a different approach and by giving back to the community.

As a Valentineโs present, IKEA and Meshwar Organization for Community Development both collaborated to help an engaged couple live their happily ever after under one cozy roof.

The company fully furnished the coupleโs 90 square meter apartment, leaving them completely surprised with the results as they have been struggling to furnish it due to the groom-to-beโs limited income.

โThis is a dream come trueโ, said Ibrahim [the groom-to-be] who works as a teacher on a temporary contract; โWe can now set the date to marry and start our own little family. We are both so happy; Valentineโs Day will be the date that we will always celebrate our anniversary. We thank IKEA for being part of our dream and for making it happenโ.

Commenting on the initiative, Adosh Sharma, IKEA Egypt Country Manager said: ย โIKEA is always keen to play an active role in the community, as we strongly believe of the importance of creating โA better everyday life for as many peopleโ. We are so pleased to be able to extend a hand. Valentineโs is a celebration of love and we have decided to celebrate it with Ibrahim and his fiancรฉโ.
