The ‘ඔබ වෙනුවෙන් අපි’ Hospital support initiative

Under this initiative we supported by a day’s pay donated by our staff and a matching contribution from the Bank, has provided essential equipment to several key hospitals. This effort is part of the HNB Sustainability Foundation’s commitment to enhancing healthcare services in the fight against the pandemic.

Financial assistance to Cancer patients

Since 2009, HNB's Sustainability Foundation has provided financial support to over 1,500 cancer patient families identified by the counselling center at Apeksha Hospital, Maharagama. In addition to assisting patients, HNB funds the annual maintenance of the hospital's counselling center, ensuring it remains a vital resource for those in need. Recognizing the challenges posed by inflation, the Foundation increased its monthly donation per patient from Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 7,500 in 2023, with a total investment of Rs. 4 million dedicated to this cause. Through this initiative, HNB is committed to alleviating the financial burden on families and supporting the well-being of patients on their journey to recovery.
