Support Activities for Disaster Victims and Disaster-Afflicted Areas
Seven Bank conducts a donation activity to support victims of disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons.
The Seven Bank Web site has a dedicated Web page that accepts donations from customers and employees. We also collect donations through the ATMs in 7-Eleven stores.
