Water for Life, Siem Reap (25-26 April 2013)

22 volunteers from Deutsche Bank's regional offices joined our Water for Life (Siem Reap) project for the first time to celebrate Deutsche Bank Asia Foundation’s 10th anniversary.

Out of the overwhelming response of more than 200 volunteer applications, Deutsche Bank sent 22 passionate employees from Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand to participate in the Water for Life (Siem Reap) project.

They celebrated Deutsche Bank Asia Foundation's 10th Anniversary by building 20 bio-sand filters and installing almost 20 bio-sand filters in less than two days to bring about positive impact for more than 200 Cambodian villagers.

Deutsche Bank is the corporate sponsor of the Water for Life (Siem Reap) project since 2010, and we sincerely thank them for their passion, generosity and kind support! (:
