Bahrain Islamic Bank (BisB) announced donating BD30,000 to the Capital Governorate’s ‘Together We Care’ campaign as part of effort to support customers who are members of the medical teams working on the front-lines to combat COVID-19. Commenting, Chief Executive Officer of BisB, Hassan Amin Jarrar, said, “Following our recent donation to the medical workforce, we wanted to do our part to support the ‘Together We Care’ initiative being led by His Excellency the Capital Governor, to aid the underprivileged and those who have been affected by the spread of the Coronavirus, by supplying them with much-needed meals.”

“We truly appreciate the Bank’s support. The campaign, which is being organised in cooperation with the Capital Governorate’s Police Directorate and in coordination with a number of institutions in the private sector and civil society, is in line with the Governorate’s efforts and its commitment to serve citizens and residents, especially in light of the current circumstances, by providing them with basic necessities. Since the launch of our campaign, we have distributed more than 4,200 meals and food baskets. We hope that with the combined efforts of all authorities, we will successfully overcome this challenge, while minimising the numbers in need,” said Capital Governor, Shaikh Hesham bin Abdulrahman Al-Khalifa.
