People’s Bank celebrated Sri Lanka’s 76th National Independence with a modest ceremony at its Head Office which was followed by a series of islandwide initiatives.
People’s Bank’s ‘Birth of Freedom’ program which commences on every Independence Day was carried out this year as well. Under this concept, People’s Bank presents ‘Isuru Udana’ Gift Certificate, valued at Rs. 2,000 to every baby born between February 1 and 14.
The specialty of this program is that the staff of People’s Bank visits the hospitals and gifts the certificates to the newborns in person.
People’s Bank also presented a cheque to facilitate the renovation of sanitary facilities at Castle Street for Women. Director of the Castle Street Hospital for Women, Dr. Ajith Danthanarayana, Deputy Director of De Soysa Hospital for Women in Borella, Dr. K.M. Nihal along with hospital staff, senior management staff of People’s Bank and other staff members were also present at the event.
In line with the above all People’s Bank branches across the country initiated ‘Nidahase Upatha’ activities.
