Healthcare personnel manning the frontlines in the fight against coronavirus get much-needed sustenance and supplies from a membership superstore.
Landers Superstore recently organized a relief program to provide medical workers with free food and groceries. The Philippine Army helped in the distribution.
Together with its partners Popeyes, Kuya J, 8990 Holdings Inc., Isla Sugbu Seafood City, and Majestic Restaurant, the superstore distributed 595 boxes of Landers Central pizza, 315 buckets of Popeyes Chicken, and 46 bags of groceries containing essential items like toiletries and snacks to 34 hospitals and six army checkpoints.
Each box of pizza and bag of groceries contain heartfelt messages of thanks and encouragement from Landers’ staff and members.
The hospitals that received donations were Philippine General Hospital, San Lazaro Hospital, Asian Hospital and Medical Center, The Medical City, St. Luke’s Medical Center QC and BGC, Cardinal Santos Medical Center, UERM Memorial Hospital, Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center, Chinese General Hospital, Philippine Heart Center, and East Avenue Medical Center in Metro Manila; Perpetual Help Medical Center in Biñan, Laguna; and Cebu Doctors Hospital, UCMed, Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center, and Cebu Velez General Hospital in Cebu City.
Meanwhile, the army checkpoints that received donations were those stationed in Alabang, Susana Heights, Canlubang Exit, Zapote Service Road, Brgy. MacArthur Highway, and NLEx Camachile.
Landers said the project aims to reach out to more hospitals and checkpoints in the next few days.
