The Commercial Bank of Ceylon PLC has collaborated with It's Humanity Foundation (IHF), a non-profit organisation in Dhaka, for a corporate social responsibility initiative, aimed at providing vocational training to underprivileged young adults.

This programme, facilitated through IHF's "Hatey Khori" project, will equip selected youth with technical skills to secure livelihoods upon graduation, according to a press release.

Najith Meewanage, chief executive officer of the bank, handed over a cheque of the CSR fund to Noor-E-Fayzun Nahar, general member of IHF, at the bank's head office in Dhaka recently.

This initiative highlights the bank's commitment to empowering communities and fostering self-reliance among youth.

Bashira Harun, chief executive officer of IHF, and Maisha Lubaba, general secretary, along with other officials from both the organisations, were also present.
