Barclays Bank Uganda recently celebrated its annual Make A Difference Day with staff participating in community events.
The bank’s managing director, Nick Mbuvi, said they were looking forward to helping disadvantaged people.
Mbuvi said, “This is an intrinsic part of us. Improving the socio- economic and legislative environment we operate in is our passion.”
They visited Nakivubo Channel, Sight Savers, Sanyu Babies Home, Katuuso Maternity and Daughters of Charity.
In conjunction with the National Environmental Management Authority, they planted trees.
“We dedicated 1% of our annual profits before tax to corporate social responsibility by supporting sectors like public health and education and developing partnerships,” he said.
