Staff of GCB Bank have donated assorted items to the inmates of the Weija Leprosarium in Accra.

The items including bags of rice, cooking oil, GCB branded chocolates, used clothing, and toiletories were contributed by individual staff of the Bank.

The donation by the staff was motivated by the Bank’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme.

The GCB delegation to the Weija Leprosarium was lead by Mrs Thyra Obuobi, Head of Corporate Affairs Department of the Bank.

Mrs Obuobi on behalf of the Bank gave the assurance that GCB would continue to support the Leprosarium.
