Caltex employees also pooled their resources together and gave P170,000 the Kaya Natin! foundation.

This was in addition to the earlier donation made by the Caltex Makati Credit Cooperative to the foundation.

Two of Caltex’ branded marketers have also reached out to the frontliners with their respective donation drives.

They also extended help in 43 barangays in Ilocos Sur spearheaded by the retailer of Caltex Candon 3, by distributing live chickens and fresh milkfish to the residents.

William Tan Enterprise, Inc., on the other hand, donated 30 containers of 70% disinfectant ethyl alcohol to the frontliners in Palawan which include various medical institutions, LGU, and uniformed personnel.

“We remain optimistic that we will all get through this unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. As we all practice social distancing and personal isolation, our frontliners continue to fight the battle for us. To show our continued appreciation and support, we at CPI and our partners implemented fuel discounts for our frontliners. We have also initiated donation drives to affected families. Let us all stay indoors, stay safe and do our part to flatten the curve,” shares CPI Country Chairman Louie Zhang.

Chevron companies also made an earlier donation of almost P1 million to Philippine General Hospital Medical Foundation Inc., JAC Liner, Kaya Natin! Foundation, and Grab Philippines in support of the COVID-19 frontliners.
