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.”
