The ethos of DBBL for pursuing its activities in social arena has got further momentum with your enthusiasm and support. Dutch-Bangla Bank Foundation (DBBF) is consistently pursuing its objective of being active in those social areas where it is needed most. The Foundation carries out diverse social and philanthropic activities in the field of education, health, conservation of nature, creation of social awareness, rehabilitation of distressed people and such other programs to redress human sufferings. It also promotes different socio-cultural and sports activities. Your Board of Directors in order to discharge its corporate social responsibilities in a greater perspective continued its contribution amounting to 5.00% of Bank's profit after charging loan loss provision to Dutch-Bangla Bank Foundation (DBBF).
The CSR activities of the Bank can broadly be categorized under two heads: continuous and need basis. The continuous programs are mostly of permanent nature, which the Foundation contemplates to carry out years together. Some of those are cited below:
1. Scholarships: Education is a pre-requisite for the overall development of the country. In this sector, our contribution through DBBF is worth mentioning. DBBF has been awarding scholarships to the meritorious and needy students of the following levels every year since 2003:
a. awards about 1250 scholarships every year to needy and meritorious students studying at H.S.C., Bachelor and Masters level. The scholarships are available for the entire academic period and the bank spends about Tk.4.00 crore every year for awarding these scholarships.
