FBM Foundation led a relief operation across Luzon on Sunday 27 February to support the communities affected by Typhoons Crising, Dante and Emong, the company said.
Focusing on swift mobilization, FBM Foundation prepared and distributed 1,000 relief packages in Batangas City, Caloocan City and Quezon City with the aim of providing essential support to hundreds of families facing loss and displacement.
The mission was led by Pepe Costa, FBM Foundation Representative in the Philippines, and Lulu Barreras, Community Service Project Coordinator at FBM Foundation.
The first stop of the relief operation was Batangas City, where 500 relief packs were handed out to families affected by rising floodwaters. With homes submerged and communities evacuated, the FBM Foundation said it was warmly welcomed by the CSWDO – City Social Welfare and Development Office of Batangas City, who expressed heartfelt gratitude for the Foundation’s committed support and active role in ensuring the relief operations were conducted in an orderly and compassionate manner.
The second destination was Barangay 176-C in Caloocan City, where 200 families received emergency supplies. The area had been hit hard by poor drainage and non-stop rains. Thanks to Barangay Captain Nelfa Cabantac, the relief goods were distributed efficiently, ensuring every affected household received the necessary support, FBM stated.
Finally, the team reached Barangay Talayan, in Quezon City, where 300 relief packages were delivered to flood-stricken residents. This final effort was coordinated with the help of Richard Cabugsanon, a concerned citizen who proactively contacted the Foundation to extend aid to his community.
This one-day mission was made possible by 12 tireless volunteers, whose dedication was instrumental to the success of the initiative. Their efforts ensured not only the delivery of goods but also the presence of empathy, hope and human connection in moments of crisis.
FBM Foundation said its swift response reinforces its ongoing mission to uplift lives, promote resilience and act when communities need it the most. From immediate relief to long-term support, the Foundation remains committed to driving sustainable, positive change across the Philippines and beyond, it explained.
