Trincomalee branch of the People’s Leasing & Finance PLC (PLC), the trusted leader among the Non-Bank Financial Institutions continued to contribute to a “give life” initiative by hosting their annual blood donation campaign for the second time.
In a context where community resistance is high in the area towards donating blood due to associated misconceptions, the branch positively responded to the annual request made by the Trincomalee General Hospital, in coincidence with the branch anniversary celebrations.
Trincomalee Branch Manager M. Kirupakaran and his team led the blood donation drive that was organised in line with the 19th Anniversary celebrations of the branch, on November 27, volunteering their time, efforts and resources for the successful completion of the campaign.
The act of solidarity, marked a participation of 156 people including PLC staff members who voluntarily donated their blood. The initiative was ably supervised by Consultant. M.F. Zeena Zanooz, Dr. W.C.M. Samaraweera, Dr. P. Britikka and Coordinator S. Theivendran of the Trincomalee General Hospital.
PLC is the flagship subsidiary of the People’s Bank, which is one of the largest state-owned banks in the country.
