GMA Network: Planting seeds of volunteerism
MANILA, Philippines - GMA Network has always encouraged its employees to give back to society. To help make this possible, the company provides various opportunities for volunteerism both in and out of the workplace.
Just recently, members of GMA Network’s employee-volunteer group GMA G.I.V.E.S. (Guide, Interact, Volunteer, Educate, Serve) participated in two separate activities that highlight the network’s commitment to corporate social responsibility.
Last Nov. 24, GMA G.I.V.E.S. volunteers together with personnel from the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) planted 1,500 seedlings along the stretch of Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) in Mabalacat, Pampanga.
The activity was part of BCDA’s Greening SCTEX program in partnership with GMA’s environmental awareness and conservation program called Kapuso ng Kalikasan. Greening SCTEX aims to plant 50,000 trees along the expressway in five years.
On Dec. 1, the network’s employee-volunteers and the GMA Kapuso Foundation, through its Give-A-Gift project, served food and distributed gifts to 408 children of incarcerated women at the Correctional Institute for Women in Mandaluyong.
