STOPANSKA BANKA TO INVEST IN A TRAFFIC POLYGON FOR CHILDREN

As a leading example of a company with corporate social responsibility, Stopanska banka implements the highest standards in doing business, while at the same time invests in the environment it works in and its improvement. The biggest inspiration for our previous CSR activities were the children for whom we invested in education, wellbeing, health and we wish to continue with a donation of an urban educational traffic/biking polygon for the residents of Skopje.

This in mind, the Bank initiated and organized the project “Vozi pravo, vozi zdravo” which has the goal to increase the awareness of the advantages to alternative forms of transportation as something of great importance to the City of Skopje, and at the same time create this healthy habit for the youngest.

In order to ensure major support and involvement of the citizenship, Stopanska banka placed an interactive web banner on the most popular web sites, where participants can virtually ride a bike and donate the meters they have passed – the more meters we collect the more funds Stopanska shall donate to the construction of the children polygon. The donated meters will also be collected at the informal race on Sunday September the 13th. The race shall begin from the i-bank store at 18 o’clock and finish at the entrance to the City park with a major party event – responsible for the musical content will be KALIOPI, 5+ band and DJ Goce (SAF). Of course, plenty of rewards and entertainment will be available for the guests of the event.

“The slogan “On your side”, used by Stopanska banka AD – Skopje is constantly upgraded and has become an integral part of our entity. We are on the side of children, the side of sport, the side of environment , healthy body and healthy spirit. It is exactly these values that Stopanska banka embodies into this project and therefore we believe that again we will receive massive support from the public.

We are proud with the sucess of the Bank from its everyday operations, however we strive to reinvest it into the community not only with improved products, services and financial education but also with projects like this which are interactive and long lasting and demonstrate our human dimension.”- said Mr. Diomidis Nikoletopoulos, CEO of Stopanska banka. 

Stopanska banka in the past invested in the operational infrastructure, developed modern and flexible banking products as well as alternative and eco-friendly channels for bank services via the i-bank. This is why the informal race will begin in front of the i-bank store the unique cashless branch that works on the highest eco standards and uses the most modern technology in promoting the bank products and services.

„We urge all citizen to join the project “Vozi pravo, vozi zdravo” by donating its meters passed with a bike, scooter, rollers, and we’ll count them properly and transform the meters into funds necessary for the construction of the traffic polygon” - added Mr. Nikoletopoulos.
