Bayanihan is not dead. It is alive and kicking in our country. Filipinos and multinational companies have been taking the initiative and answering the call for donations in our battle against COVID-19.

Another great generosity is from Globe Telecom who has donated 1,000 mobile phones preloaded with 30-day unlimited AllNet Call & Text to all networks to the country’s hospital workers and armed forces.

“To enable the frontliners to attend to emergency situations quicker, as well as to communicate with their colleagues and family members without worrying about telecom expenses.”

– Yoly Crisanto, Globe Chief Sustainability Officer and SVP for Corporate Communications.

Acts like this are truly noteworthy because it  further fuels the bayanihan spirit within each of us. Together we can overcome this as long as we help each other.

“We understand the hardships that our frontliners are facing and we are thankful for their heroic deeds. To help, we are doing our best to provide them with the connectivity they need to save lives, protect the public, and get in touch with their loved ones,”

– Yoly Crisanto
