During a pandemic, there is a period when everyone is required to isolate themselves, when everyone must stand apart and face a problem by mobilizing their own resources ... But self-isolation should not become loneliness in the face of the common danger of being infected. Only by joining forces and actions, we can defeat the pandemic, solve the urgent problems infront of us.
A great example of such true partnership is Alfa-Bank's charitable assistance to our federal TB institution in the amount of 1 million rubles. This significant help with real money will be used to purchase equipment and improve NTRI IT systems in response to an increased load during a pandemic, which threatens, among other things, a large number of tuberculosis patients in the Siberian and Far Eastern federal districts.
It is known that Alfa-Bank takes an active part in the social life of the regions in which it develops its business. As a co-founder of Alfa Group, the bank carries out effective charity work in support of healthcare.
We are glad that we were able to help the Novosibirsk Research Institute of Tuberculosis, says Mr Andrei Fisher, a regional manager of the Novosibirsk branch of Alfa Bank.
Acting on behalf of NTRI Director, doctor of medical sciences Natalia Stavitskaya, MD, noted the good timing and importance of charity for medicine at the present time, and she thanked the representatives of Alfa Bank on her own behalf and on behalf of the entire staff of the institute.
At the moment, the funds have already been transferred to NTRI account.
We believe that such timely, decisive and effective steps by large financial institutions such as Alfa Bank, in close alliance with modern medical institutions, such as NTRI, during the period of the coronavirus epidemic and economic uncertainty, do present the most visible signs of confident overcoming problems and an expression of the true spirit of cooperation.
