Globe expanded its GDay relief efforts to Guagua, Pampanga, reaching 200 families affected by the recent typhoon with relief, connectivity and livelihood assistance. The activity brought together Globe employee-volunteers and the local community as families continued to recover from severe flooding.
While floodwaters have subsided in parts of Pampanga, affected families continue to deal with damage to their homes and livelihoods. Globe employees prepared and distributed relief packs to residents in Guagua, and SIM cards were provided to help families stay connected with loved ones.
The effort also included support for residents looking for additional sources of income as they recover. Selected beneficiaries received reseller starter kits that can provide an opportunity to earn within their communities, while Globe Fiber Prepaid kits were raffled off to participating families.
“Even after the floodwaters go down, families still have a long way to go as they rebuild their homes and livelihoods. Through GDay, our employees were able to be there for communities in Guagua and provide help that they can use as they recover,” said Mel Baquiano, Globe General Manager for North Luzon.
The Guagua relief activity followed Globe’s recent GDay efforts in Tarlac and Nueva Ecija, where employees worked with Kaya Natin Youth–Tarlac City and assisted more than 100 families in Brgy. Sawat, Camiling. The two-day effort also provided school supplies to students at Sawat Elementary School and food and school supplies to children at Bahay ni San Jose Orphanage in Nueva Ecija.
“Recovery takes time, especially for families whose homes and livelihoods have been affected by flooding. We appreciate Globe and its employee-volunteers for reaching our communities and providing assistance that can help our residents as they recover from the typhoon,” said Hon. Rowena D. Dimalanta, Barangay Captain, Barangay Sto. Cristo Guagua, Pampanga.
The GDay relief efforts in Tarlac, Nueva Ecija, and Pampanga show what Globe of Good means in practice: Globe employee-volunteers giving their time and skills to help communities where they can make a difference. It is a commitment Globe brings to life through its people, partnerships, and continued engagement with communities across the country.
