Last July 2022, Pilmico in partnership with Aboitiz Foundation, Inc. and Ramon Aboitiz Foundation, Inc. (RAFI), donated gilts, egg machines, and bakery livelihood kits to several Typhoon Odette survivors. This aims to uplift their livelihoods and help them following the onslaught of the typhoon in Cebu and Bohol.
Two beneficiaries of the “Padayon sa Pagbusay” initiative paid it forward through a feeding program in their communities last November. Leonida Tambalo, a Bakery Livelihood kit beneficiary from Ubay, Bohol, gave bread and juice to over 20 daycare students. Meanwhile, Teofista Apura, an Egg Machine kit beneficiary from Carcar City, Cebu made a simple lunch meal for more than 30 people.
According to the beneficiaries, this was their simple gesture of gratitude to Pilmico, AFI, and RAFI who gave them much-needed help and continue to do so as they sustain their business.
Their simple way of giving back to their communities embodies and further solidifies the greater purpose of the Aboitiz Group — “to drive change for a better world.”
