The Federation of Filipino Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry Inc. (FFCCCII) hosted an appreciation dinner at Furama Restaurant on Dec. 12, 2024, in recognition of the outstanding contributions made by its medical mission team and the Filipino-Chinese Dental Association Inc.
FFCCCII president Dr. Cecilio K. Pedro, vice president and social responsibility committee supervisor William Yap Castro and director Hong Zhao Jian, along with other leaders, attended the event.
The medical and dental teams played a crucial role in providing essential healthcare services to marginalized communities across the Philippines.
Free clinic and medication services are considered one of the Filipino- Chinese community’s “Three Treasures”, a core initiative aimed at providing essential healthcare and support to underserved populations.
Every Sunday morning, the FFCCCII social responsibility committee, in collaboration with doctors, dentists and volunteers, travels to various communities to offer free medical consultations, distribute medications and provide dental services.
The team also provides reading glasses to elderly residents in need to improve their quality of life.
FFCCCII remains committed to expanding its outreach and providing continued support to those in need in the coming years.
