DigiPlus launches two donation waves for Mindanao earthquake victims

THE work never stops for the DigiPlus Foundation, especially in times of disaster and tragedy, as thousands of Filipinos continue to bounce back from the massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake that rocked Southern Mindanao last June 8.

With a majority of assistance stemming from Charity tab users of BingoPlus, DigiPlus Foundation was able to immediately mobilize and launch its first of many big donation waves across multiple villages in hard-hit General Santos City.

The foundation quickly spread to the villages of Apopong, Fatima, Labangal, and San Jose last June 11, providing water assistance to 1,000 families who all experienced disruptions to essential services.

With its BayanihanPlus community resilience program, foundation volunteers worked through the Philippine Independence Day holiday alongside local partners and community leaders to ensure assistance swiftly reached families, as time is always of essence in times of calamities.

The assistance waves are expected to continue beyond the first two, as the foundation also targets visits to multiple villages on the island of Sarangani, another hard-hit province south of the Mindanao mainland.

The foundation is also in deep and constant coordination with the Philippine government, through the Department of Social Welfare and Development, for any further assistance that families may need as relief continues to pour into their villages.
