Globe continues to scale its relief and support operations in Albay as Mayon Volcano remains under Alert Level 3, with communities in high-risk areas staying in evacuation centers amid ongoing volcanic activity.

 

As part of its continuing response, Globe, through its #AlagangGlobe initiative and in collaboration with partners, has delivered food assistance and essential supplies to affected residents across multiple municipalities.

These efforts were organized through the donations of customers via Globe Rewards and GoGIVE, which aim to provide immediate nourishment and support to families temporarily displaced by volcanic activity. Globe customers can continue to provide support to our affected kababayans by using the GlobeOne app.

 

Further extending support, Ayala Foundation Inc. (AFI) will lead relief operations in Camalig City and Guinobatan, Albay, distributing 1,000 food packs in the coming days, together with #BrigadangAyala.
