Doha Bank, MME join hands to clean up Al Farkiah Beach
DOHA Bank has continued its efforts to spread the message of environmental and sustainable development by joining hands with Qatar’s Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME), and organised a ‘Beach Clean-Up’ drive at Al Farkiah Beach, Al Khor, under the theme ‘Keep Qatar Clean’.
The beach clean-up event 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 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.
Al Anoud Khalid Al Attiyah, 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 and Environment 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 MME, said:
“I would 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.”
