Isuzu PH completes P1-M donation project to health care institutions

MANILA: Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) started a campaign to donate money to certain hospitals across the country as part of the Road to Progress vision, which was unveiled on its 25th inaugural anniversary in support of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

IPC donated P1 million in cash to four carefully chosen hospitals in various parts of the Philippines, with each hospital receiving P250,000 to help with projects and necessities. This donation was made specifically to promote good health and well-being in the community and live up to its tagline, "Your Responsible Partner."

The first two P250,000 was turned over to Northern Mindanao Medical Center in Cagayan De Oro and Irosin District Hospital in Sorsogon. As pledged, IPC completes its P1-million cash donation before the year ends as it turns over the last two P250,000 to Philippine Children’s Medical Center (PCMC) in Quezon City and Dumarao Medicare Hospital in Capiz.

The two turnover ceremonies were done separately with Imelda Bernas, IPC Assistant Vice President for Administration, and Robert Carlos, IPC Sales Assistant Division Head leading the ceremony.

Philippine Children’s Medical Center is a government-run hospital specializing in pediatrics. Apart from catering pediatric patients, PCMC also serves a training ground for specialists with their training and service program. They are currently expanding and enhancing their facilities to better serve not just their patients but also their trainees.

Using the cash donation from IPC, PCMC will build a shed for their waiting area to protect the patients, parents and personnel while waiting for their schedule.

Meanwhile, Dumarao Medicare Hospital (DMH) is also a local government-run hospital in Dumarao, Capiz, catering patients from several nearby barangays. With the P250,000 cash donation from IPC, this small hospital is looking forward to purchasing more medical supplies and medicines for their patients.

“We are glad that we are able to extend assistance to different hospitals nationwide through this Road to Progress donation project. As Filipino’s responsible partners, our goal here is to be able to give back to the community, particularly those that are in dire need of assistance. Together with our dealers, we hope to uplift the life of many more Filipinos with our projects in line with our renewed vision.”, said Imelda Bernas.
