GMA Kapuso Foundation intensifies reach in Cebu

CEBU, Philippines - GMA Kapuso Foundation Inc. (GMAKF), one of the country’s most trusted non-government organization and acknowledged leader in public service, has long been committed in touching the lives of the underprivileged members of the society nationwide. By carrying out developmental projects and ensuring its sustainable operation, the foundation becomes the “strong bridge” that effectively connects the distance between those who need help and those willing and able to extend help.

 Today, November 26, GMA Kapuso Foundation continues this mission as it intensifies its reach further by bringing Serbisyong Totoo a lot closer to the Cebuanos through a special event entitled “Serbisyong Tinud-anay Para sa Mga Cebuano” at Marco Polo Plaza Cebu, 11:30 am.

The event – which is geared towards eliciting compassion from donors and promoting volunteerism among Cebuanos – will be attended by no less than GMAKF EVP and COO Mel Tiangco together with GMA Regional TV AVP Oli Amoroso, GMA Regional News and Public Affairs AVP Cel Amores, and GMA TV Cebu Station Manager Ann Marie Tan.

Since 2008, the Kapuso Foundation has already mounted several projects in Cebu such as Kalusugan Karavan, Unang Hakbang sa Kinabukasan, Operation Bayanihan, and Special Health projects that has helped thousands of individuals.

As the Foundation strengthens its presence in the area, Cebuanos are even more encouraged to extend a helping hand to those who are in need in more ways than one.

“With the creation of a GMAKF Cebu Chapter, it is easier to serve our Kapusong Cebuanos. On the other hand, it also provides an opportunity for Cebu residents to show their care and concern to their kapwa Cebuanos through the Kapuso Foundation,” says Tiangco.
