BRAC Bank has significantly contributed to establishing an oxygen plant at Kidney Foundation Sylhet's new premises, furthering its commitment to the healthcare sector.
This initiative is part of the bank's broader health programme, "BRAC Bank Aporajeyo Ami," aimed at improving access to essential healthcare services for underserved communities across Bangladesh.
Meheriar M. Hasan, Chairperson of BRAC Bank, was the chief guest at the agreement signing ceremony, held at the Kidney Foundation recently, says a press release.
Also present at the event were Sheikh Mohammad Ashfaque, Deputy Managing Director and Head of Branch Distribution Network, and Ekram Kabir, Head of Communication, BRAC Bank, along with Col Mohd Abdus Salam (Retd.) BP, Secretary General of Kidney Foundation Sylhet.
The newly inaugurated Kidney Foundation Sylhet includes a dedicated floor named after Sir Fazle Hasan Abed, the visionary founder of BRAC, which will offer life-saving kidney dialysis services.
In addition to the oxygen plant, BRAC Bank has pledged support to the "Sir Abed Kidney Dialysis Fund," providing free dialysis services to financially disadvantaged patients.
Commenting on the initiative, Hasan said, "We at BRAC Bank are honoured to contribute to this vital initiative that embodies the spirit of service and compassion exemplified by Sir Fazle Hasan Abed.
The oxygen plant will ensure patients have access to critical medical resources.

Our commitment to the wellbeing of our communities is at the heart of our 'BRAC Bank Aporajeyo Ami' initiative, and we will continue to champion such causes for a healthier and more equitable society."
BRAC Bank's contribution to the oxygen plant and its support for the Sir Abed Kidney Dialysis Fund underscores its commitment to inclusivity and social responsibility.
Through the "BRAC Bank Aporajeyo Ami" initiative, the bank continues to make a lasting impact on the healthcare sector and empower the most vulnerable members of society.
