Bank of Maldives (BML) has supported the development of a park dedicated to senior citizens in Addu City Feydhoo, under the BML Community Fund.
BML stated the aim of the project is to promote healthy lifestyles and wellbeing of senior citizens while encouraging seniors to engage in social activities and connect to their community. The park is shaded and equipped with benches and seating which allow senior citizens to enjoy outdoor games such as carrom, cards and chess. The park will also be used to hold monthly events such as health checkups and awareness sessions in partnership with NGOs in the region.
The BML Community Fund is a programme to empower individuals and NGOs to contribute to their communities through sustainable projects. BML has provided financial assistance for 60 projects across the country through this fund.
