Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC), the country’s largest fast food chain, is donating Php2Million (Php2,000,000.00) for the thousands of families affected by flooding brought about by the rains from Typhoon Maring and the southwest monsoon (Habagat).
The Jollibee Group Foundation (JGF), the corporate social responsibility arm of JFC, will turn over the amount to the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) to help the agency in providing assistance to affected families in critically hit areas in Metro Manila and Luzon.
Aside from the monetary donation, JFC and JGF have given relief assistance by donating sacks of rice to families in evacuation centers in coordination with the Local Government Units of Cavite (Cavite City, Bacoor and Noveleta), Pampanga (San Fernando) and Bataan (Dinalupihan). As in the previous years, JFC and JGF have also turned over donations in-kind thru the GMA Kapuso Foundation, ABS-CBN Foundation, Alagang Kapatid Foundation, Gawad Kalinga and Philippine Red Cross in order to reach out to as many affected families as possible.
