Doha: Doha Bank has joined hands with the Ministry of Municipality in an organised “Beach Clean-Up” at Al Farkiah Beach in Al Khor, with the theme “Keep Qatar Clean”, as part of its commitment to spread the message of environmental and sustainable development.
The beach clean-up event, held recently, was led by Doha Bank’s management and volunteer staff members who actively picked up waste glass, litter and trash collected along the shoreline by following the Ministry’s protocols and safety guidelines during the activity.
The event was also organised to support Doha Bank’s primary objective on its drive towards “Keep Qatar Clean” and to create awareness among staff on their social and environmental responsibility. The initiative aimed to support the importance of beaches in Qatar’s ecological sustenance and in supporting marine life, while inspiring community effort towards keeping public places free of waste and pollutants.
Al Anoud Khalid Al Attiyah, Doha Bank’s Manager of Public Relations said: “Doha Bank’s beach clean-up activity inspire and empower individuals to adopt more sustainable activities spotlighting biodiversity protection. We would like to thank the Ministry of Municipality for their support and contribution to the successful ‘Beach Clean-up’ event and we look forward to more collaborative sustainable initiatives”.
Muhammad Al Misnad from the Ministry of Municipality commented: “I’d like to convey my heartfelt gratitude to Doha Bank for its commitment to environmental issues that benefit the community and beachgoers. A cleanup drive was launched at Al Farkiah beach to remove a considerable amount of plastic and glass that was posing a significant danger. This was the first campaign with Doha Bank aimed at removing glass from beaches, and it was a huge success”.
