Concentrix, a leading global business services company, reinforced its commitment to social causes by partnering with United Airlines at the Adventure Bear Program 2017. The event, held at the National Children’s Hospital in New Manila, Quezon City, organized by United Airlines annually, helps deprived groups in the Philippines and perfectly aligns with Concentrix Philippines’ CSR efforts to give back to the community.
Adventure Bear Program is an initiative of United Airlines to serve the economically backward groups in the community and support local hospitals and charities. Concentrix Philippines has always been at the forefront of working for the welfare of children, among other noteworthy causes. It has earlier organized the Marawi Donation Drive, held school refurbishing and coastal cleanup drives, and donated computers to schools.
“Giving back to the community has always been part of our culture here at Concentrix, and we are delighted and thankful for being part of United Airlines’ Adventure Bear Program,” said Concentrix country leader Elek Toth. “It is indeed a privilege to see how this effort has brought smiles and joy to the less-fortunate children. It’s been a truly humbling experience.”
Now in its third year, the decision to support the National Children’s Hospital this year was to spend quality time with indigent children from poor backgrounds. The hospital is a government facility run by the Department of Health and dedicated to pediatric care. The young patients were presented with Ben Flyin’ Adventure Bears and happiness bags, and participated in a balloon twisting activity and other fun games.
The smiles on the faces of the children capped a truly wonderful day, and one worth remembering for all Concentrix Philippines staff!
