Going beyond being just a seasonal motorist assistance activity, in the past 3 years, Petron Lakbay Alalay has expanded into a four-pronged sustainable program with the following key components: (a) Lakbay Alalay para sa Kaligtasan includes the Free Safety Check, the “Seat Belt Saves Lives†sticker program, safe motoring reminders on the highways, and LPG checks in communities; (b) Lakbay Alalay para sa Kalikasan consists of tree-planting tie-ups with local government units and tollway operators, and trash bin promo giveaways; (c) Lakbay Alalay para sa Kalusugan with a Fun Run, anti-dengue campaign, medical missions, and community clean-ups; and (d) Lakbay Alalay para sa Kaalaman, an information campaign on Project Noah, the government’s flood alert program.
Now in its 28th year, Petron Lakbay Alalay is a full-blown effort that caters to the needs of every Filipino motorist travelling the roads of life. This Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program is engaging and, at the same time, remarkable both for Petron and for the Filipino people because of its holistic and relevant coverage.
