MCB Bank Limited, in the aftermath of displacement of millions of people of Swat Valley and adjoining areas, extends support to its countrymen by donating Rs 25 million for relief efforts. According to a MCB's spokesman here on Tuesday, MCB's President Atif Bajwa said the bank has always been, and will always be, at the forefront in showing solidarity with our people in times of need.
'In view of the current situation in NWFP, MCB, along with other government and social sector organisations, is working actively to mobilise resources for the relief effort. We hope that our humble contribution would help improve conditions of the effected families,' he added. Apart from the donation, all MCB branches nation wide are actively facilitating collection of donations for government and non-government agencies.
The bank has also provided the same facility through its ATMs, Internet banking and call centre where MCB customers can donate for these IDPs. The MCB branches located across NWFP are catering to the daily routine cash requirements of these IDPs.
Help desks have also been set up at IDP camps established at Sheikh Yasin (Mardan), Sheikh Shahzad (Mardan), Jalala (District Mardan), Shah Mansoor Town (Swabi), Mera and Jalozai. Other MCB branches are also facilitating the IDPs who have fled homes and have migrated to different parts of NWFP. The MCB employees are also actively participating in these relief efforts. Some of MCB's staff members on their own initiative are visiting these camps to distribute relief goods and are providing voluntary services to the victims.
