snoop1130 Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 Bangkok Bank Public Company Limited (PCL) has made a generous donation exceeding 70 million baht to Siriraj Hospital, signalling its strong commitment to social responsibility and community support. This significant contribution unfolded through the innovative Bangkok Bank-Siriraj Card Project. On Mahidol Day, Pochanee Kongkalai, Executive Vice President of Customer Banking, proudly handed over a cheque for 70,315,053.39 baht to Professor Dr Apichat Asavamongkolkul, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at Siriraj Hospital. Also present were key figures from the bank, including Voranuch Siratharanont, VP of the Credit Card Marketing Department, and assistants Sirikun Chaiyasing and Narisa Laopanich. This initiative allows cardholders to turn their everyday spending into impactful contributions for patients at Siriraj Hospital. The project involves two principal cards: the B-First Smart TPN Siriraj Card and the Bangkok Bank Visa Platinum Siriraj Credit Card. For every medical expenditure made by cardholders at Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok Bank donates 0.2% per billing cycle. Additionally, the bank contributes 100 baht for each new B-First Smart TPN Siriraj Card application and 50 baht for annual renewals. Since its inception in 2015, the Bangkok Bank-Siriraj Card Project has successfully raised 548 million baht, highlighting Bangkok Bank’s pivotal role in supporting Thailand's healthcare sector. This effort aligns with the bank's longstanding mission to be a reliable companion to Thai society for over eighty years. Looking forward, Bangkok Bank remains dedicated to partnering with customers and the community to foster a healthier and brighter future for Thai society. This heartfelt contribution also honours His Royal Highness Prince Mahidol of Songkla, celebrated as the "Father of Modern Medicine in Thailand." File photo for reference only -- 2024-09-19 1
