Community Involvement
As a relationship bank, we take the initiative to appreciate our society and recognize that our customers are our first priority, not only in business but we are also committed to enhancing their overall quality of life.
In line with our values, we realize that we can only thrive in a society where we give back and utilize our resources to support our communities and protect the environment by joining in the conservation efforts.
We pay close attention to the issues that are important to our stakeholders, employees, customers and the community. Those that directly or indirectly touch on our operations such as environmental protection and fair and equal employment opportunities rank top most. We marry this with our resolve to continuously empower women in our society as well as fund small businesses for community development.
Every Chase employee intrinsically believes that our CSR objective is linked to the goals of the institution – to be good corporate citizens, to be a great place for customers to enhance their financial partnerships, to be a good work place, and to be a positive influence in the communities we serve. As a result, the Chase Bank Foundation has been established to identify the social, environmental and ethical issues that affect our business, raise awareness and build our employees commitment.
We aim to build stronger and healthier communities through our strategic social investments in Women and the Environment.
HCI Kenya
Faith Nkatha hands over a cheque for ksh 150,000 as members of HCI Kenya and Chase Bank look on.
HCI Kenya was opened in 1995 by John High whose family founded Homeless Children International. The home caters to children of kindergarten age through to high school.
In mid 2009, the children in the home doubled and their donors withdrew. It was at this point that they approached Chase Bank for assistance. The Chase Bank staff led by the corporate banking team raised ksh 75,000/- which was then doubled by the Bank bringing the total to ksh 150,000/-
On December 11th 2009, Chase staff visited the home and donated the monies raised along with clothes and foodstuffs collected. These donations were then divided between the home in Nairobi and the one in Loitoktok.
