Phnom Penh: PPCBank has delivered on its promise to provide free eye surgery to those who were screened as part of its “New Vision” project in Kampong Thom Province on May 28th. In collaboration with the Khmer Sight Foundation, more than 200 underprivileged people were screened for eye problems, more than 20 of whom were found to be in need of surgery. Those patients have now been brought to Phnom Penh for free surgeries, all supported by PPCBank.

Kampong Thom, Cambodia, May 28th, 2022- PPCBank, in collaboration with the Khmer Sight Foundation, brought free eye checkups as part of its ‘New Vision Project’ to hundreds of underprivileged people who suffered from eye diseases in Kampong Thom Province on May 28th 2022.

PPCBank has inaugurated a new building with five classrooms for Tonle Oum Primary School students. The building was officially opened on February 24, 2022.

The donation is in line with PPCBank’s belief that education is the key foundation for a country’s development, with it boosting the economy, improving social morality and reducing poverty.

Siem Reap Province, Cambodia, February 14, 2022 – For the second time, PPCBank has handed land back to its owners in Siem Reap Province after extensive landmine clearance work by the humanitarian NGO, APOPO and its award-winning ‘HeroRATs’. This second handover ceremony was even more special, with PPCBank’s 2021 fundraising drive involving members of the public. Together with generous contributions from PPCBank staff and clients, the total funds raised across 2021 increased to $10,000.

Phnom Penh, 16 November 2021 – PPCBank has thanked all donors who supported its second “APOPO Fundraising Campaign”. The fundraising drive came to an end on 12 November 2021. The bank’s clients, together with its staff, raised a total of $1,065 Donations were matched dollar-for-dollar by PPCBank. The bank has also donated a further $8,935 to bring the grand total to $10,000.

We know life is tough during the pandemic, we really do, but few people are having as hard a time as those living with the constant threat of landmines in Siem Reap.

That’s why we at PPCBank have been asking for donations from our generous and compassionate clients for this extremely heart-warming campaign. We’re matching 100% of the received donations from all of you.

Siem Reap Province, Cambodia, 14 January 2021 – PPCBank is delighted to hand back 2.4-hectares of land (equivalent to the size of two football fields) to 11 families in Siem Reap Province. This has been made possible thanks to our partnership with the APOPO Humanitarian Demining NGO.

With the generous donation from PPCBank customers, staff and us, we collected around 10,000 USD to support the flood victims in Pursat and Battambang provinces with the good coordination from the National Committee for Disaster Management. For both missions, we are able to contribute a total of 400 drinking water bottles (20 liters/bottle), 850 cases of noodle, 600 packs of canned fish, and 100 packs of fish sauce. Thank you for entrusting us with your budget on this donation.

It’s our great pleasure to be part of Cambodia’s change through our CSR; together with Jeonbuk Bank we mark a new chapter of our CSR activity where we offer a full scholarship to 12 students to pursue their bachelor degree in the university. We hope they will achieve all their goals, and bring the great impact for our society in the future.
