Sterling Bank of Asia, one of the country’s leading thrift banks, donates to St. Martin de Porres Charity Hospital heir much-needed medical tools and equipment in a turnover ceremony held last December 2018, at the hospital’s function hall.
“When you give, you give with your heart. As Sterling Bank of Asia is the ‘Bank with a Heart,’ we want this exemplified in our advocacy, hence we are continuing this work for the past 4 years,” said Cecilio San Pedro, SBA president and CEO.
“We are grateful that during this time, Sterling Bank of Asia keeps its doors open and reserves a space for us“ Dr. Gliceria Manlises, SMPCH medical director shared.
“Thank you for keeping your presence beside us just like the shepherds who were the first visitors of our Savior,” Manlises added.
SBA also gave out some Christmas baskets for the volunteer nurses for their dedication and selflessness in serving the community.
“We will only walk in this life once, so let’s do good things together and let future generations learn from our tagline—kind heart gives,’’ San Pedro said during the ceremony.
SMPCH is a project of the Dominican Family of San Juan, a non-stock, non-profit Tertiary Hospital accredited by the Department of Health. It caters not just to residents of San Juan but also to residents of nearby cities.
Those who wish to donate to the charity hospital may reach them through telephone numbers (02) 723 0741 to 43 or email them at smpch59@yahoo.com.
