Organic Shampoo by the Pak Phoom Jai Community, Bangkok Pak Phoom Jai is one of many Bangkok communities in crisis due to the COVID-19 situation. The key challenge faced by this community, where approximately 120 families are suffering, is the limited ability to develop sustainable products that will help lift incomes during the crisis. TMB Thanachart volunteers helped the residents in terms of identifying potential products, developing products, and accounting andmarketing. Their organic shampoo product under the brand ‘Proud’, which means Pak Phoom Jai in Thai, has been successfully launched with positive results. In 2020, the community made revenue of over 100,000 Baht within 2months of launching the product. This is additional income for this community. Additionally, TMB Thanachart has continued with several strong key CSR programs in 2020, including: TMB and Thanachart's Royal Kathin Robe Presentation, Nakhon Sawan In 2020, the bank was graciously bestowed by His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn Phra Vajiraklaochaoyuhua the honor of offering the Royal Kathin Robes to monks who have completed a three-month rain retreat at a royal temple, Wat Woranat Banphot in Nakhon Sawan Province. Thanachart Bank was granted the presentation of Royal Kathin Robes for the 14th consecutive year. This year marked a special occasion as clients, business partners and the general public of the two banks collectively donated 17.8 million Baht to Wat Woranat Banphot. The temple set aside this donation for the Sataban Saengsawang Foundation, under the patronage of Her Royal Highness Princess Soamsawali KromMuen Suddhanarinatha, to fund the construction of new school buildings for children with special needs worth 5 million Baht, and the procurement of ventilators worth 2.2 million Baht for Sawanpracharak Hospital in Nakhon Sawan and Buddhachinaraj Phitsanulok Hospital in Phitsanulok. The Annual Thai Red Cross Fair 2020 Due to the exceptional circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Thai Red Cross Fair 2020 was held online. The bank helped raise funds to support this good cause by selling 200,000 Thai Red Cross lottery tickets via the two banks' distribution channels and donating 6.5 million Baht. This made TMB the fifth largest corporate donor to the Thai Red Cross Society's activities for many years in a row. TMB and Thanachart offered a series of rewards to participants in the Thai Red Cross lottery 2020. 35 Su s t a i n a b i l i t y Re po r t 2 0 2 0 I n t r odu c t i o n Cu s t ome r s En v i r o nme n t a l & So c i a l I mp a c t s Pe op l e Go v e r n a n c e App e nd i x
