The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has recognized Cebu Pacific Air (CEB) for its contribution in providing logistical support during calamities and disasters.
The DSWD commended CEB, along with other government agencies, private organizations, and dedicated volunteers, for delivering humanitarian assistance and relief to communities in need.
“We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to our valued partners and volunteers who extended their support to the National Resource and Logistics Management Bureau in delivering immediate responses to families affected by various calamities,” Diana Rose Cajipe, DSWD Undersecretary for Disaster Response Management Group, said.
“We are grateful to have you as our volunteers and partners and commend all of you for your outstanding contributions to alleviating the suffering of vulnerable and disadvantaged people during crises,” she added.
In 2023, CEB airlifted over 258 metric tons of humanitarian cargo, showcasing its dedication to supporting communities during times of crisis.
Cebu Pacific’s chief corporate affairs officer, Michael Ivan Shau, emphasized the airline’s purpose goes beyond flying and focuses on connecting and supporting communities, especially during challenging times.
“We are honored to contribute to the government’s noble efforts in making a difference in the lives of those in need,” Shau said.
