Fidelity Bank donates hospital equipment in Bauchi, deepens CSR
Fidelity Bank Plc., has stepped up its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) interventions using its special purpose vehicle known as Fidelity Helping Hands Project (FHHP).
Recently in North Eastern part of the country, the FHHP donated hospital equipment and renovated a maternity and child welfare clinic in Kofaran, Bauchi State.
The renovated health centre was unveiled by the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Fidelity Bank Plc, Nnamdi Okonkwo in a ceremony that attracted people from the host communities and environs. Okonkwo, who was represented by the Regional Bank Head, North-East Region, Dr. Musa Tarimbuka, noted that the Bank takes great pride in entrenching the culture of true and responsible citizenship among its staff.
The Bank Chief said government alone cannot solve all of societal problems, and called on private sector organisations and corporate bodies to lend their support to government, particularly as it relates to the provision of basic infrastructure and social amenities.
“Giving is a culture at Fidelity Bank and we will continue to encourage this. Under the FHHP initiative, the bank matches 100 per cent whatever amount that is contributed by staff to fund CSR projects of their choices. This project was funded by the combined contributions of individual staff members of Bauchi Main Branch of Fidelity Bank,” he stated.
