In a city of nearly 7 million people, playgrounds and recreational spaces are crucial for the physical and mental development of children and adolescents. However, due to rapid urbanisation, Chattogram faces a growing shortage of such open spaces. Recognising this pressing need, CCC and UCB have jointly taken the initiative to implement this vital project.
With over four decades of leadership in financial services, corporate social responsibility, and sustainable development, UCB is proud to provide financial support for this noble endeavour. The bank is committed to creating a safe and enjoyable environment for children to play and grow healthily.
