The Bank of Cyprus has received two accolades recognising its corporate responsibility at the Boussias Cyprus Responsible Awards 2023, according to a statement released on Wednesday by the bank.
Specifically, the Bank of Cyprus was awarded the Platinum Award in the Long-term Investment category for the establishment of the Bank of Cyprus Oncology Centre 26 years ago.
Moreover, the bank highlighted that it has financially supported the centre from its inception, contributing a total of €70 million to date.
In addition, in 2023, the bank announced a doubling of its annual donation to €2 million, aiming to enhance and expand the services offered by the oncology centre.
What is more, the bank received the Gold Award for its SupportCY network in the Investment Cooperation – Local Community-State category.
This network was established during the challenging days of the pandemic to provide support to government services and beyond.
The bank said that it continues to be a key supporter, both through the network’s member companies and the ever-growing body of SupportCY volunteers.
Upon receiving the awards, Corporate Social Responsibility Manager Elli Ioannidou stated that “the bank of Cyprus consistently demonstrates its role within Cypriot society and will continue in every possible way to be a major supporter in every challenging moment, whether it concerns health, education, or the environment”.
