THE Clark Development Corporation (CDC) recently extended help to some 150 individuals including the Indigenous Peoples (IPs) community from Sitio Haduan in Clark Freeport in a gift-giving project organized by the state-owned firm’s External Affairs Department (EAD).

As part of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) program, gift boxes containing assorted canned goods, rice, noodles, coffee, medicines and vitamins among others were given to selected beneficiaries in the said area.

The activity was led by CDC President and CEO Manuel R. Gaerlan along with CDC–Office of the Presiden (OP) Chief-of-Staff Dennis Legaspi, CDC–EAD Assistant Manager Ronald Antonio, CDC-OP Aide-de-Camp Kristoffer Aleksie Gaerlan, Community Relations Officer II Agnes Matias and other CDC officials and personnel.

The gift-giving project aimed to extend help to marginalized communities, especially in the time of pandemic. Aside from this initiative, the state-owned firm has also been active in conducting other community programs related to health, employment, livelihood and other special projects.
