Kuwait "September 14, 2011: Gulf Bank announced today its organization of a blood donation day in collaboration with the Central Blood Bank, an initiative that reiterates its commitment towards the Kuwaiti society.  The blood donation day will occur on September 19, 2011 at Gulf Bank's MAK branch in Kuwait City.

Donations will be collected at a special equipped unit located inside the Bank's branch which will not only accept blood but will provide basic health check ups including weight, BMI and blood pressure measurements.

The need for donated blood has always remained an absolute necessity hence making it crucially important that this service remains at the forefront of public awareness.

Gulf Bank's approach to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) begins with a fundamental principle; that, as a Kuwaiti bank, its values, conduct and policies should be aligned with the needs and interests of the Kuwaiti society, working towards a better and more prosperous Kuwait.
