Doha Bank recently held a tree planting activity at Dukhan under the theme, “Plant More Trees, For a Greener Future (Plant a Tree, Create a Hope)”.
The initiative aims to have a lasting, positive impact on the environment, besides promoting a green culture as part of Doha Bank’s corporate social responsibility.
Staff from various departments and branches participated in the activity. Dr R Seetharaman, Doha Bank Group CEO, said: “In line with the propagation of a green culture, changing the staff’s mindset on how they care for the environment is the key to promoting eco-consciousness from within the organisation. This tree plantation drive will further promote awareness and co-operation among Doha Bank staff with the vision to save the environment.”
“In terms of Doha Bank’s operations, we are pushing for paperless banking by automating the systems process in order to reduce paper usage and wastage, saving trees in the process. Doha Bank ATMs remind customers of saving trees by reducing the printing of paper receipts and a dedicated Doha Green Bank website to keep customers in touch with recent green events of Doha Bank,” he further said.
“Tree planting is also one of the pillars of our ECO-Schools Programme in the Environmental Health category, extending the bank’s mission and vision to schools in Qatar to educate children on the importance of the environment.”
The Green Banking Task Force Committee, along with the staff, joined hands in planting trees at the Dukhan Garden project to improve the landscape and increase awareness about the importance of trees.
