Doha: Doha Bank continued its efforts to spread the message of environmental protection and sustainable development by joining hands with Qatar’s Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME), Al Wakrah Municipality to host a ‘Beach Clean-Up’ event at Al Wakra Family Beach, with the theme ‘Save The Beaches For the Future’ to show its commitment to the environment and to support the forthcoming World Environment Day global event on June 5.

The initiative aimed to creating greater community awareness about the need to protect and preserve the natural environment and keep the marine habitat safe and trash-free, the Beach Clean-up event was led by Doha Bank’s Management and volunteer staff members who actively picked up litter and trash collected along the shoreline.

Commenting on the announcement, Dr R. Seetharaman, CEO of Doha Bank, said: “While Doha Bank has always championed giving back to the community, the Green Banking initiative has truly seen us outdo our own expectations and bring about significant positive change for sustainable environmental management.
