BDO Foundation, the corporate social responsibility arm of BDO Unibank, donated 12,350 relief packs to more than 36 barangays in Luzon that were affected by Typhoon Carina.

Typhoon Carina struck the National Capital Region (NCR) and nearby cities, causing major flooding in various residential areas last July. The foundation, with the help of Tanging Yaman Foundation, dioceses and parishes, local government units, and BDO and BDO Network Bank employees sent assistance to communities affected by flooding in Bulacan (Malolos, Calumpit, Bocaue, Hagonoy, Meycauayan, and Obando), Pampanga (Macabebe and Masantol), Ilocos Sur (Vigan), Rizal, and Metro Manila.

BDO Foundation donated food packs containing rice, canned goods, and drinking water. “BDO Foundation hopes that through this simple act of kindness, we are able to show our solidarity to our kababayans and to help in giving them hope as they bounce back from this calamity,” shared BDO Foundation president Mario Deriquito.

Apart from the relief packs, BDO Foundation, through BDO Network Bank, also delivered cleaning materials to 150 schools across NCR, region 3, and region 4A to help flooded school communities prepare their facilities for the opening of classes.
