The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and foodpanda Philippines hosted an early holiday celebration for Walang Gutom Kitchen beneficiaries in Pasay City on Dec. 1.
Speaking for DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian, Undersecretary Edu Punay thanked foodpanda for its continued donations that help prepare nutritious meals for families served by the program.
Beneficiaries received a special meal prepared as part of foodpanda’s “Pasko na, We Gatchu” Christmas initiative, which the agency said brings meaningful holiday support to vulnerable households.
Foodpanda managing director Daniel Jaramillo praised the partnership, saying it shows how the private sector and government can work together effectively to address hunger.
The Walang Gutom Kitchen program is among the DSWD’s key initiatives supporting President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s goal to ensure no Filipino family goes hungry.
