Ten fully functional ambulances, including three in West Bengal, have been donated by Bandhan Bank as part of its CSR initiatives to enhance emergency medical access and improve healthcare delivery in a variety of areas around India. The initiative, which was unveiled during the Bank’s tenth Foundation Day festivities, has now been put into action with the donation of ambulances. The program demonstrates the Bank’s dedication to expanding the availability and responsiveness of healthcare services, guaranteeing that patients receive prompt medical care in an emergency. The fully furnished ambulances were given to the Ashadeep Trust in Murshidabad, the Institute of Neurosciences in Kolkata, and the Institute of Child Health in Kolkata.

Reputable hospitals and healthcare organizations throughout the nation, including those in Bengaluru, Ahmednagar, Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Delhi, Jaipur, Akbarpur, Jalandhar, Kolkata, and Murshidabad, have received the ambulances. The Bank is helping to create stronger, healthier, and more resilient communities by funding hospitals in several states and improving healthcare infrastructure.

Mr. Partha Pratim Sengupta, MD & CEO, Bandhan Bank, said, “We at Bandhan Bank are adamant that having access to high-quality healthcare is a basic right, not a luxury. Our goal is to support hospitals that serve diverse communities and improve emergency medical response through this project. Beyond banking, our dedication to inclusive development aims to make India’s communities healthier and more resilient. By ensuring that prompt medical aid is available when it is most needed, we hope to improve people’s lives through this project”.

Over 25 lakh families in 82 districts across 14 states have benefited from Bandhan Bank’s CSR initiatives, which provide a special emphasis on women and rural communities in the areas of healthcare, education, livelihoods, and climate resilience. Bandhan Bank continues to show its dedication to community development and social responsibility through these programs.
