The local arm of Japanese carmaker Isuzu has recently donated sets of personal protective equipment (PPE) to its partner institutions Caritas Manila, Philippine Coast Guard, and Philippine Red Cross.
The activity, which Isuzu Philippines Corporation started last June 1, represents the second round of donations under its “Kasama Mo” campaign that aims to provide assistance to partner institutions.
According to IPC, the “Kasama Mo” campaign has been the company’s continuing response to the global pandemic. Faithful to IPC’s value of being “Your Responsible Partner”, the “Kasama Mo” campaign actively promotes the importance of sharing and caring and gives an opportunity for Isuzu customers and stakeholders to support frontliners with every Isuzu vehicle produced and bought. The PPE sets are utilized by the partners’ brave and devoted frontliners who continue to risk their lives for their fellow citizens.
During the activity, a total of 296 sets were donated to Philippine Red Cross, Caritas Manila (294 sets), and the Philippine Coast Guard (147 sets). Representatives of IPC held simple turnover rites at the partner institutions’ satellite offices in Manila (for Caritas Manila, and the Philippine Coast Guard) and Santa Rosa City in Laguna (for Philippine Red Cross).
Hajime Koso, President of Isuzu Philippines Corporation, expressed the support of IPC in continually helping out the country’s modern day heroes. “We assure our partner organizations that this will not be the end of our assistance to them, as we vow to continue to support them in fighting this pandemic,” he stressed.
