More support for frontline heroes. In August, Jollibee Group brands Jollibee, Greenwich, Chowking, Red Ribbon, and Mang Inasal sent meals to some 300 hospitals around the country in support of the health care workers leading the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
The
Jollibee Group continues to support frontline health workers
responding to the COVID-19 pandemic by donating meals from its brands
to about 300 hospitals around the country in August 2020. Health care
workers have received food packs from Jollibee,
Greenwich, Chowking, Red Ribbon, and Mang Inasal.
“The
Jollibee Group recognizes that our medical frontliners have made
tremendous sacrifice in the past months. The fight against the
COVID-19 pandemic gets tougher as days go by. Providing them meals to
enjoy is a way to refresh their tired bodies and refuel their heroic
efforts. We are more than grateful for what they are doing for our
countrymen,” said Jollibee Group Foundation Executive Director
Gisela Tiongson.
“Sobrang
nakakaboost ng morale at nakakataba ng puso na mayroong kompanya na
tumutulong sa aming mga frontliners (It
really boosts our morale and warms our hearts that there are
companies that send support to us frontliners,)”
said Melagros Ancheta, a staff at the Veterans Medical Memorial
Center who received food packs from Greenwich Pizza.
According
to Dr. Medina Magbitang, “Your donation made us feel that you are
one with us in this fight against the pandemic. (We) truly appreciate
your sense of generosity to our frontliners.” Dr. Magbitang is the
Medical Director of M.S. Magbitang Hospital of San Ildefonso in
Bulacan. The hospital received Mang Inasal meals for their frontline
staff.
As
of August 2020, the Jollibee Group has mobilized a total of
P268-million worth of food packs that have benefited some 4.3 million
people in communities and served 1.5 million meals to frontline
health and checkpoint personnel. Of this, the company donated P227
million, while the additional P41 million came from business
partners, other corporate foundations, and the general public through
the Jollibee Group FoodAID Coin Bank.
The
public can continue to support the Jollibee Group FoodAID Program to
help
feed more frontliners and families in need. Interested donors may
donate through online bank transfer to the Foundation’s Metrobank
(Acct. No: 473-7-473-01406-4;
Swift Code: MBTCPHMM) and RCBC (Acct. No. 1253-10519-0) accounts, or
