BRIDGES of Benevolent Initiatives Foundation, Inc. (BBI Foundation) and Miss Midori Clark 2018 has recently united to help the elderly of Bahay Pag-Ibig Home for the Aged located at Barangay Telebastagan in the CIty of San Fernando.

Through their corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative, they were able to provide personal goods and appliances to over 60 senior citizens. The donations were personally turned over by Miss Midori Clark 2018 candidates.

Midori Clark Hotel and Casino Head for Marketing, PR, and VIP Services Timmy Diwa shared that the meaningful endeavor is one of the many ways their foundation gives back to the community and help the less-privileged.

“We are really committed to hold these regular CSR activities that promote acts of kindness. And it’s also the whole essence of our pageant, to find a woman who will well represent our foundation in special causes like these,” he said.

“We vow that we will continue to pursue our mission of lending a hand to the needy, for many more years to come,” he added.

Bahay Pag-Ibig Home for the Aged, for its part, noted that they are privileged to be chosen as beneficiary of the charitable works of the foundation.

“We are really pleased to have been selected to receive assistance from BBI Foundation. Like any other home for the aged, we too are in need of donations that will help us survive,” he said.

“The whole institution would like to extend our deepest gratitude to the foundation. Without the help of good Samaritans like them, we cannot continue the good work that we have began for the last 30 years,” he continued.

Present during the CSR event were Midori Clark Hotel and Casino Manager for Marketing, PR, and VIP Services Maria Fatima Louise Maneja, Compliance Executive Alma Rodriguez, Public Affairs Director Teddy Kho, Miss Midori Clark 2018 Head Organizer Bing Montes, Pageant Director Jhune Salud, Pageant Trainor Makoy Manlapaz, and BBI Foundation Board of Trustee Enix Salvador and Project Officer Nick Soriano.
