In 2018, TBANK participated in the Red Cross
In 2018, TBANK participated in the Red Cross Fair held at Lumpini Park from 23 November to 1 December 2018. The decoration of its booth was based on the concept of “Engine to Success” which represented the Bank’s policy of not only delivering good products and services to customers but also giving back to society through CSR activities. At the fair, TBANK held a workshop for its customers who participated in activities organized at the Bank’s booth. Used plastic straws were recycled by using them for decorating cloth bags. The recycling of the used plastic straws was part of TBANK’s campaign against climate change. In addition, the Bank received donations of plastic straws which would be forwarded to a youth group called “Sandal Gang” in Lopburi Province. The youth group used the straws as raw materials for producing pillows for paralyzed or bed-ridden patients. Moreover, TBANK would humbly present the net proceeds worth 6,300,000 baht from its sale of Red Cross lottery tickets and its participation in the Red Cross Fair in 2018, to Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn, Executive Vice President of the Council of the Thai Red Cross Society for supporting the Society’s activities.

Annual Red Cross Fair 2015
Thanachart Bank participated in the sale of Red Cross lottery tickets as well as the Red Cross Fair which was held annually. The participation in the annual fair could be traced back to the year 1976 when Bangkok Metropolitan Bank was the only commercial bank which was invited to join the Red Cross Fair, at which the bank used the name of "Bangkok Metropolitan Bank's Red Cross Booth". Later in 2002 when Bangkok Metropolitan Bank merged with Siam City Bank, Siam City Bank participated in the fair, using the name of "Siam City Bank's Red Cross Booth". In 2011 when Siam City Bank merged with TBANK, the name at the fair was changed to "TBANK's Red Cross Booth". Today, it is still the only commercial bank with a booth at the Annual Red Cross Fair in Suan Amporn Park. The net proceeds from the sale were humbly presented to Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn, Executive Vice President of the Council of the Thai Red Cross Society for charity at the discretion of Her Royal Highness as partial financial support in an annual manner to the Council.
