Volunteers from the Head Office of Energy Development Corporation visited the Missionaries of Charity-Home of Joy (located in Manila) and the Punduhan ng mga Dumagat (situated in Bulacan) last December 20, 2018 to deliver gifts of rice, toiletries, milk, sugar, laundry soap, and instant noodles to the said communities.
The Missionaries of Charity-Home of Joy is an institution that helps children (ranging from 2-12 years old) who are mostly afflicted with Tuberculosis and malnutrition, while the Punduhan ng mga Dumagat serves as a focal point, cultural and trading activities for the Agta-Bulos , Aeta or Dumagats tribes living within their traditional ancestral domain.
The gifts that were delivered were bought using funds gathered from collections in all the Holy Masses celebrated in One Corporate Center - including all the First Friday Masses and those offered during the annual "Nine Christmas Mornings" of the company.
On behalf of the beneficiaries, a heartfelt gratitude to everyone who shared their blessings and continue to support this annual employee volunteerism activity.
