Pan Asia Bank’s HR Team maximising employee  volunteerism with CSR projects

Pan Asia Bank, has been inspiring its employees to make their personal contributions to spreading joy and hope by launching a variety of initiatives to have a positive impact on the society and environment. As one of the most motivated and professional teams in the banking industry, Team Pan Asia Bank succeeded in implementing some impactful initiatives to commemorate the Bank’s 25th anniversary despite the pandemic.

As part of the bank’s anniversary celebrations, a special tree planting was organised under the theme,‘Plant a tree’ by Team HR in the Hanthane Forest Range, Southern expressway, and in schools and public places across the island. After invoking the blessings of Maha Sangha, over 300 plants were planted in the Hanthane Forest Range with the participation of the Director/CEO of Pan Asia Bank, Nimal Tillekeratne. Over 500 plants were planted under this CSR campaign which was aimed at promoting a ‘green future’ in Sri Lanka while taking appropriate measures to ensure the long-term sustainability of the future generation.

 Team HR also initiated another event to mark the Bank’s anniversary in a unique and more meaningful manner by organising a blood donation camp, contributing selflessly towards saving lives of fellow human beings especially during this national hour of need despite the pandemic situation. Held at the Bank’s premises, the camp was well-organised in collaboration with the National Blood Bank – with enthusiastic staff members actively volunteering to donate blood, giving the gift of life.

 Continuing in its commitment to put smiles on faces, Team HR initiated a Day of Charity at “Diri Daru Piyasa” Bandaragama- an Institute for children with Down syndrome. Bank funded the cost of partitions which helped to make the classrooms more conductive to learning.
