The Aboitiz Group, led by social development arm Aboitiz Foundation and its various business units, pooled their resources and immediately reached out to more than 7,000 victims of Typhoon Tisoy (international name: Kammuri) by conducting relief operations and re-energization efforts in Albay and Sorsogon.
Victims of Typhoon Tisoy, which barreled through the Bicol region on Dec. 2 to 3, were left with destroyed houses and livelihood, no electricity and poor communication lines, three weeks before Christmas.
“Through the help of various Aboitiz business units, we were able to pool as many resources as we could to provide immediate relief assistance to the communities affected by typhoon Tisoy. We want to bring hope to our fellow Filipinos. After all, this is what Christmas is all about,” said Aboitiz Foundation COO Maribeth Marasigan.
“We commit to continuously seek more sustainable ways to help rebuild lives and livelihoods,” she said.
