Question

In my town, an Islamic organisation has built a bank on a land that had been donated as sawaab jariyah. Is this correct?

Answer

If it was for thawaab jaariyah then the word thawaab jaariyah has to be defined, whether the deceased intended that a musjid or madrasah be built there or what did he intend.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
