Dr. Maya Morsy, Minister of Social Solidarity and Chairwoman of the Nasser Social Bank, has directed the bank to provide EGP 13 million in support to Al-Mahalla Al-Kubra General Hospital. This funding will be used to purchase seven medical devices aimed at enhancing healthcare services for a large segment of citizens, improving the overall quality of care at the hospital.
The initiative is part of the bank’s broader corporate social responsibility strategy, which aligns with Egypt’s national vision to improve the healthcare system. The bank has launched several positive initiatives and provided support to numerous hospitals, alongside engaging in protocols that aim to create a lasting positive impact on the healthcare sector, one of the nation’s top priorities.
Vice Chairman of Nasser Social Bank, Osama El-Sayed, explained that a portion of the bank’s welfare contributions has been directed toward the healthcare sector. This includes the development and equipping of numerous public hospitals, universities, educational institutes, and specialized medical centers with critical resources, such as intensive care units, operating rooms, and diagnostic and therapeutic equipment to provide free services to patients.
He emphasized that social solidarity activities are central to the bank’s mission, aiming to increase its social welfare budget to make a substantial impact on community development initiatives.
Dr. Ahmed Attia, Head of the Social Solidarity Sector at the bank, outlined that the sector is divided into three main departments: the General Department for Aid and Grants, the Social Loan Department, and the General Zakat Department. The bank continues to focus on supporting the healthcare sector as part of its broader strategy to serve the community and contribute to Egypt’s sustainable development goals, particularly in line with Egypt’s Vision 2030, which prioritizes quality healthcare for all citizens.
Dr. Attia further noted that the bank’s contribution to Al-Mahalla General Hospital reflects its commitment to corporate social responsibility as a key pillar of sustainable development, focusing on sectors like health, education, economic empowerment, and environmental protection. Additionally, the bank plays an essential role in supporting the most underserved villages and projects that empower women, particularly female-headed households.
