About 5,000 people received free treatment and consultations at a medical camp organised by Jamuna Bank Foundation in Goalghunni village under Mirkadim Municipality, Munshiganj, according to a release published by The Business Standard on Saturday.

Doctors at the camp offered seven specialities: eye care, gynaecology, dentistry, diabetes, paediatrics, orthopaedics and general medicine. The organisers said the aim was to help people with limited access to healthcare get essential treatment and advice.

The foundation also distributed 2,500 blankets to disadvantaged people affected by the cold and gave 200 sewing machines to women to support their livelihoods.

Al-Haj Nur Mohammed, chairman of Jamuna Bank Foundation and of the bank's executive committee, attended as chief guest. Mirza Elias Uddin Ahmed, the bank's managing director and CEO, presided, and deputy managing director Md Shahidul Islam was special guest.
