People’s Bank marks Independence Day by giving gifts to children born during Independence week
People's Bank celebrated Sri Lanka’s 74th National Independence Day by hoisting the national flag at a modest ceremony held at their Head Office in accordance with government’s health and safety guidelines.
The ‘Birth of Freedom’ programme held by People’s Bank every Independence Day was carried out this year as well. Under this concept, People’s Bank gifts Rs.2,000 worth of ‘Isuru Udana’ Gift Certificates to every baby born between the 1st and 7th of February, the bank said in a media release.
People’s Bank launched this programme in 2006 with the vision of instilling national pride and encouraging parents to plan for their children’s future. Parents can open an ‘Isuru Udana’ Children’s Savings Account at any People’s Bank Branch using the Gift Certificate.
People's Bank Chairman Sujeewa Rajapakse and Chief Executive Officer/ General Manager Ranjith Kodituwakku symbolically presented ‘Isuru Udana’ gift vouchers and other gifts to the Director of the Castle Street Maternity Hospital Dr. Pradeep Wijesinghe and Director of De Soysa Hospital for Women in Borella, Dr. Upuli Wijemanne.
