Southeast Asia Bank (SeABank, HOSE: SSB) has donated 10 billion VND to support National Charity Month 2026, organized by the Vietnam Red Cross Society. The contribution was made at the national launch ceremony, with the aim of helping disadvantaged people and promoting the spirit of charity in the community.
At the ceremony, SeABank’s 10 billion VND contribution supported welfare activities under the annual National Charity Month program. The initiative is designed to connect, mobilize, and coordinate social resources to implement humanitarian support effectively, providing timely and practical assistance to vulnerable groups both domestically and internationally.
National Charity Month 2026 centers on two main areas: promoting sustainable livelihoods within Vietnam and spreading humanitarian responsibility internationally. SeABank’s participation reflects its commitment to work with government agencies and social organizations to carry out welfare programs that contribute to a sustainable and prosperous society.
In response to appeals from the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and the Vietnam Red Cross, SeABank said it continues to affirm its role in social welfare through a sustainable development orientation and the motto “put people and the community first.”
Over more than three decades of operation, SeABank has expanded corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs in diverse forms. Its welfare activities focus on education, health, support for disadvantaged groups, orphans, poverty reduction, removal of substandard housing, disaster response, and environmental protection.
With a development-oriented approach linked to social responsibility and a creed of “bringing joy to people’s lives,” SeABank said it will continue to spread humanitarian values and contribute to building a sustainable and prosperous society.
