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."
As of August 2020, the Jollibee Group has mobilized a total of P268M worth of food packs that have benefited some 4.3M people in communities and served 1.5M meals to frontline health and checkpoint personnel. Of this, the company donated P227M, while the additional P41M 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 Account (Acct No: 473-7-473-01406-4: Swift Code: MBTCPHMM) and RCBC (Acct No: 1253-10519-0) accounts, or via PayMaya (https://bit.ly/33LKpex)
