‘Gamot Para sa Kapwa’ launched

MANILA, Philippines - SM invites its shoppers to give a gift of health to less fortunate communities through the Gamot Para sa Kapwa campaign.

A joint project of the SM Store and Watsons in partnership with the Department of Health, the Department of Social Welfare and Development and SM Foundation, Gamot Para sa Kapwa aims to provide quality health assistance to indigent communities in the country.

This is especially timely during the typhoon season, when quick aid is essential during emergency situations such as accidents and natural disasters.

Shoppers do their share by visiting Gamot Para sa Kapwa booths at all SM Stores until Sept. 30, where they can purchase and donate a Sureaid Emergency Kit worth P160 exclusively distributed by Watsons and approved by the DOH and Food and Drug Administration.

Each kit contains items needed for basic first aid treatment like wound cleansers, bandage and dressings, basic medicine, and other accessories. Sureaid Emergency Kits purchased are for donation only. Cash donations are also welcome.

All donors are entitled to a P50-coupon to be redeemed with minimum single receipt purchase of any Watsons brand worth P350 valid until Sept. 30, 2015.
