The early Christmas-giving activity of ACPACI was spearheaded by its Director for Social Involvement Florencia Gorospe.   

According to Gorospe, the choice of White Cross Orphanage as the beneficiary of ACPACI’s CSR project this yuletide season demonstrates the organization’s concern for the children. 

“Christmas is for everyone. But it always brings to mind children,” she said. “We are grateful there are organizations taking care of these homeless children like White Cross.”

With Gorospe during the gift-giving were ACPACI President Walter Abella, ACPACI Chairperson for Social Involvement Noel Ang, PAMA President Lolita Tang, and representatives from the Rotary Club of San Juan North.
