Press release.- FBM Foundation was recently honoured at the PGH Medical Foundation’s 27th founding anniversary and Donours Appreciation night. The event, held on August 29, at the Manila Hotel, counted with the donation of PHP1m to the institution Medical Foundation on the FBM Foundation’s part and recognized its significant contributions to enhancing healthcare services for the Filipino community.

FBM Foundation has played a key role in furthering PGH Medical Foundation’s efforts to enhance the hospital’s ability to deliver essential care, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The ceremony also counted on the presence of Catherine Tobias, senior group finance manager, and Lulu Barreras, the Foundation’s Project coordinator, who attended the event near the FBM Foundation team.

In 2020, the FBM Group donated PHP5m to PGH Medical Foundation, which was crucial in acquiring vital medical equipment needed to combat the spread of the virus.
