MANILA — Immediately responding to the needs of its stakeholders, NLEX Corporation started the distribution of relief goods to local government units (LGUs) and host communities that were severely affected by the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat).
The tollway company donated 160 boxes of canned goods and 250 boxes of instant noodles to the Valenzuela LGU, headed by Mayor Wes Gatchalian.
In a separate effort, fifty sacks of rice were handed over to Mayor Isko Moreno Domagoso as part of the assistance for residents of Manila. Host communities from Tondo, Sampaloc, Sta. Cruz, and Sta. Mesa also received relief goods from the company.
Meanwhile, fifty sacks of rice were turned over to the Quezon City local government to help provide relief to residents affected by the massive flooding.
Despite continuous rains and the onset of a new tropical depression, NLEX Corporation continues to distribute relief to ensure that affected stakeholders receive timely assistance. In addition to Valenzuela, Manila and Quezon City, the company has so far extended aid to the municipalities of Guiguinto and Marilao, among other affected areas. NLEX will extend relief assistance to a total of eight (8) Local Government Units and 79 NLEX-SCTEX-NLEX Connector host barangays.
On Monday, July 21, amid heavy rain and massive flooding across Luzon brought by the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat), the NLEX team distributed food and water to stranded motorists.
These acts of “malasakit,” a core value deeply embedded in the company’s culture, reflect its enduring commitment to support the communities it serves, especially during difficult and uncertain times. (UnliNews Online)
