Each year, Republic Bank’s branches and units embark on projects and initiatives to assist various communities.  This year, National Flour Mills Limited (NFM) supported the efforts of the bank’s Head Office, Administrative Department by providing food hampers for distribution to less fortunate students of the Toco Secondary School. The students were selected by school personnel in collaboration with the school’s Welfare Committee. NFM is cognizant that by reaching out to students, entire households benefit, and as a major food manufacturer the company regularly donates to needy families via NGOs and other organisations. Further, thanks to the Republic Bank team, students of Toco Secondary will enjoy the refurbished basketball court and other physical equipment that will better enable them to participate at various meets.
