MANILA, Philippines — Development pledges and grants worth P45 million have been turned over by the Metrobank Foundation Inc. (MBFI) and the Ty family foundation, GT Foundation Inc. (GTFI), to 30 development partners.

The turnover ceremony was held yesterday at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, as part of Metrobank’s 62nd anniversary celebration.

“We recognize that in empowering an entire nation, we must engage in partnerships to nurture communities, support societal progress and deepen the contribution we can make to the greater good,” said MBFI president Aniceto Sobrepeña.

MBFI and GTFI’s support to development partners will focus on addressing critical issues such as malnutrition, quality education, disaster preparedness and sustainable livelihoods.

Meanwhile, MBFI has partnered with various groups to tackle health challenges, including the Negrense Volunteers for Change Foundation and Caritas Manila.

Other key initiatives include the Roots to Shoots 2.0 program with Pilipinas Shell Foundation, addressing food insecurity in Camarines Sur and the W.A.S.H. for L.I.F.E. project in Basilan, a water source rehabilitation initiative in collaboration with Manila Water Foundation.

GTFI has also extended support to ensure access to food through partnerships with the Advancement for Rural Kids and Planet Water Foundation.

GTFI also strengthened its collaboration with Manila Doctors Hospital.

The CBCP Caritas Philippines Foundation’s augmentation program will deliver essential food items to 20 residential care facilities nationwide.

Another round of GTFI’s flagship initiative Salamin sa Maliwanag na Bukas program will be done in partnership with the ABS-CBN Foundation, providing free eye check-ups and prescription glasses to public elementary students.
