FBM donates 5,000 essential kits to Jeepney drivers
⏱ 2 min read
(Malta).- FBM donated 5,000 essential kits to the Jeepney Drivers in Pasay, Paranaque, Manila and Quezon City. This initiative was coordinated together with PAGCOR - Philippines Amusement and Gaming Corporation and involved the four cities. Each kit contains food and health essential goods and this action will impact thousands of families greatly affected by the pandemic.
The Philippines counts with a community of Jeepney drivers composed by more than 500,000 professionals, but only a small percentage from this group has been allowed to operate currently due to the Covid-19 restrictions and effects. As a consequence, thousands of families are now struggling financially and that’s the reason why FBM contacted PAGCOR in order to take concrete action on this situation.
Rui Francisco, FBM´s founder, explains the purpose of this donation: “The Jeepneys are one of the symbols of the Philippines’ culture and economy. After understanding the dimension of this social problem, we decided to help the drivers´ families with a gesture that can have a real impact on the daily lives”, declared Rui Francisco.
“The Philippines played a major role in our growth and is one of the main markets responsible for our assertion as a leading global gaming brand, so this is our gesture of gratitude to give back to the people that is deeply connected with FBM”, mentioned the FBM founder.
The 5,000 essential kits were prepared by PAGCOR members and distributed by a team composed of PAGCOR volunteers and a few FBM team members. Each bag contains various food goods as well as health materials (masks and alcohol gel) to help these families facing their daily and basic needs.
FBM is a global gaming brand that has conquered the land-based casino market since 2001. With operations established in Asia, North America and Europe, the brand owns the leadership of the video bingo market and is committed to reinventing the slots segment.
