Seven branch offices belonging to the Southern Cluster of DFCC Bank and DFCC Vardhana Bank recently organised a corporate social responsibility project where staff members took timeout of their busy work schedule to volunteer their labour to carry out various tasks for the benefit of the general public.

The activity involved the cleaning up of seven hospital wards, located close to the branch in the region. The selected wards included those from the Embilipitiya Base Hospital, Kalawana Base Hospital, Balapitiya Base Hospital, Mahamodara Teaching Hospital, Galle, Matara General Hospital, Nagoda General Hospital and the Deniyaya Base Hospital. Staff from these seven branches painted the walls, roofs, beds and other furniture in the selected wards along with the staff of the respective hospitals.
