Medical”¯frontliners”¯are”¯the”¯modern-day heroes in our ongoing”¯battle”¯against the”¯COVID-19 pandemic.”¯As they continue”¯to”¯save”¯lives of our”¯kababayans, we”¯can stand behind”¯them by practicing health safety measures and utilizing”¯technology.”¯
Utilizing digital apps like”¯PayMaya”¯are making it easier”¯for”¯Filipinos to participate in”¯bayanihan”¯movements”¯for”¯the community – this includes making donations to organizations whose beneficiaries are healthcare workers.”¯Here are some of the ways you can”¯show”¯support”¯to our medical”¯frontliners, with the help of PayMaya:
Practice”¯safety”¯health standards”¯in your day-to-day”¯activities”¯
The easiest and sure way to curb the spread of the virus is by keeping ourselves within the safety of our homes and staying healthy. We must always”¯ensure that we follow safety health standards”¯in”¯our daily activities.”¯”¯
One way to”¯keep ourselves safe is by going cashless. With apps like”¯PayMaya,”¯you can easily”¯pay your”¯utility and government”¯bills, send money to your loved ones, purchase essentials at the PayMaya Mall, and even buy prepaid load with just your mobile phone–no need to go out to do these transactions.
Donate to”¯initiatives supporting medical”¯frontliners”¯
Many of PayMaya's partner organizations,”¯including the”¯Philippine Red Cross,”¯PGH Medical Foundation,”¯PLDT-Smart Foundation, and Alagang Kapatid Foundation,”¯have”¯initiated programs supporting our healthcare workers. Their initiatives”¯provided”¯care packages, food,”¯supplies, and medical”¯kits”¯to”¯frontliners.
Today, you can easily”¯support”¯the”¯Philippine Red Cross,”¯PGH Medical Foundation, PLDT-Smart Foundation, Alagang Kapatid Foundation,”¯and other similar orgnanizations”¯using”¯your”¯PayMaya”¯account. All you have to do is go to the Bills feature of your”¯PayMaya”¯app, choose Donations, and select”¯the organization you’d like to donate to. Simply key in '00000' as the account number and enter your donation amount, then proceed to complete your donation.”¯”¯
If you are abroad or would prefer to use your card to donate, you can go to PayMaya's donation website,”¯https://donate.paymaya.com/”¯. In the site, you can choose from PayMaya's 50 Donation Partners with COVID-19 relief and response efforts and donate to their cause”¯using”¯any”¯Visa, Mastercard, and JCB credit, debit, and prepaid cards, or other e-wallets.
Purchase digital products at”¯PayMaya’s”¯in-app”¯shop”¯to provide meals to medical”¯frontliners”¯
From”¯May 18-20, 2021,”¯PayMaya is doing a flash donation”¯for”¯our”¯frontliners.”¯Each time you purchase digital products such as telco load, gaming pins, on-demand content credits, and transportation credits from”¯the in-app”¯PayMaya”¯Shop, the digital payments company will”¯donate”¯Php1″¯on your behalf to build a pool of fund to distribute”¯packed”¯meals to a total of 10,000 medical”¯frontliners”¯of”¯26 public hospitals”¯for”¯five days. This initiative, in partnership with PLDT-Smart Foundation, Alagang Kapatid Foundation, and Cignal, is a way to pay tribute to our modern-day heroes who work tirelessly to save lives of COVID-19 patients.
Make an emergency donation to the Philippine General Hospital through the PGH Medical Foundation
One of the PGH’s pay ward was recently struck with fire that damaged a portion of its facilities and displaced patients. It has called for food, non-food, and cash donations. You can extend your help to the PGH through the PayMaya donation channels of PGH Medical Foundation. You can simply visit pymy.co/pghmedicalfoundation to donate using any credit, debit, or prepaid card or go to the Bills page in the PayMaya app to make a donation (Go to Bills > Tap Donations > Choose PGH Medical Foundation > Enter ‘00000’ in the Account Number field and put the amount you wish to donate).
