Metrobank Foundation a Special
Plaque of Recognition for the
Foundation’s contribution to PNRC as
a Milleium Partner for the last five
years.)
The Metrobank Foundation has been a
key partner of the PNRC in promoting
humanitarian services since 1993,
when the Foundation started
providing financial support to
PNRC’s services for health care,
disaster operations, and various
community development efforts.
The
partnership was institutionalized in
2000 when the Foundation committed
to the Millennium Partnership
Program with a grant of P5 Million
to be disbursed over a period of 5
years.
More than the financial
assistance, the partnership between
the Foundation and the PNRC affirms
the organizations’ shared vision to
be of service to humanity, most
especially the underprivileged. |
