Two weeks after the Typhoon Lawin ravaged the northern parts of Luzon, KMBI released financial assistance to 2,500 Program Members (PMs) from the North Luzon East (NLE) Area as part of the organization’s relief efforts. The operation spanned from November 2-4, 2016.

This was done through the Disaster Preparedness and Risk Management (DPRM) Program, facilitated by the Human Capital Department (HCD) to help lessen the effects of natural disasters and calamities on Program Members by means of financial relief.

KMBI extended P500 worth of cash assistance to 433 PMs from Cauayan branch and 2,150 PMs from Tuguegarao branch, with the amount totalling to PhP 1,291,500.

“I’m thankful to KMBI because they give us blessings beyond our expectations,” said Ms. Norma Ignacio, a Center President in Cauayan Branch.
