OCBC Bank has decided to give SGD 600,000 as part of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives for various social causes ranging from vulnerable children, youths and families to people with special needs and also for environmental issues in Singapore.
In addition to this, OCBC Bank has also given SGD 300,000 in December last year for starting nine projects.
