Masraf Al Rayan held its annual blood donation campaign in collaboration with the Blood Donation Unit at Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC). The event, which was held at the bank’s head office, came as part of Masraf Al Rayan’s “long-standing social responsibility strategy to provide HMC’s blood bank with the necessary supplies that could be used to save lives and at the same time raise awareness of the significance of donating blood among the general public”, according to a statement. Nasser Raeissi, assistant general manager, human resources and administration at Masraf Al Rayan, praised the campaign and the level of participation by the bank’s employees and customers. He also commended the “effective collaboration with HMC in their endeavour to reach higher humanitarian goals”. The participants, who came from all departments of the bank as well as from among customers, expressed satisfaction at the cause and for being part of this year’s campaign and the contribution they were making to alleviate the suffering of many people who might be in need of medical help.
