Standard Bank has provided R300 000 in funding to Gift of the Givers, to ensure that they are able to provide help to as many communities as possible .The bank has also encouraged its employees across the country to donate to the cause in their personal capacity, where possible.
For every rand that is donated by an employee, Standard Bank will also match this amount through its Corporate Social Investment (CSI) Rand4Rand matching programme.
