As part of its ongoing commitment to promoting a culture of charity and reinforcing humanitarian values, Sharjah Islamic Bank (SIB) organized a blood donation campaign in collaboration with the Sharjah Blood Transfusion and Donation Center. The campaign was conducted through a mobile donation unit stationed in front of SIB’s head office branch in the Al Taawun area of Sharjah.
A Strategic Commitment to Supporting Health and Humanitarian Initiatives
This noble initiative is part of a series of community-focused activities that the SIB carries out annually, in line with its institutional strategy aimed at supporting health and humanitarian initiatives. The campaign also contributes to boosting the national strategic blood reserves to save lives and meet the needs of hospitals and healthcare centers across the UAE. The campaign was scheduled with careful attention to the privacy and comfort of donors.
Raising Staff Awareness of Charitable Work and Their Role in Supporting the National Health System
Hassan Al Balghouni, Head of Corporate Communications & Customer Awareness at Sharjah Islamic Bank, stated: “At Sharjah Islamic Bank, we are committed to supporting initiatives that reflect our institutional and humanitarian values and demonstrate our genuine dedication to the community.
