Jollibee donates P100M worth of food to health workers, frontliners

Jollibee Foods Corp. (JFC) said Thursday it is donating P100-million worth of food products from its brands to health workers and on-ground checkpoint personnel.

The move is “in support of health workers and other frontliners who are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

The frontliners will be receiving food packs from Jollibee, Chowking, Mang Inasal, Red Ribbon, Greenwich, Burger King, Panda Express, and PHO24.

JFC, through the Jollibee Group Foundation’s FoodAID Program, said it has been closely coordinating with public and private organizations for an efficient distribution system of the food products to the frontliners.

“Our frontliners are our real modern-day heroes during this time of a pandemic, and it is unfortunate that many of them have little time to rest. The Jollibee Group is one with them in this fight and we hope that through our food, we can fuel their heroic efforts,” JFC CEO Ernesto Tanmantiong said.

“We are more than grateful for what they are doing for our countrymen. We thank them from the bottom of our hearts,” he added.—AOL, GMA News
