Citi to observe Global Community Day on Nov 17

Citi, the world's leading financial institution, will observe Global Community Day on November 17 like last year, says a press release.
Citi employees volunteer year-round in the communities in which they live and work. “Global Community Day” is such an initiative to have Citi's employees in over 100 countries, along with their families and friends, come together as a global team on one single day each year.
Volunteer teams will be working on hundreds of local projects addressing specific community needs, including literacy, housing, environmental protection, nutrition, health care and disaster relief all across the globe on November 17, 2007.
In Bangladesh also, Citibank NA has taken extensive programmes to observe the day. It will organise a very special day for the physically and mentally challenged children of Bangladesh Protibondhi Foundation (BPF). A few hundred children from various BPF programmes such as Kalyani, Dishari and Karukor are expected to attend this programme.
