TIRELESS and empowered! The Zonta Clubs of Cebu 1 and 2, as well as so many others—like the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry, American Chamber, Integrated Bar of the Philippines-Cebu, BDO Foundation, GMA-7, ABS-CBN, to name a few—had a series of donations for survivors and volunteers all caught up in the fight against Covid-19.
The Balik Buhay project of the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry prepares a long-term program to help small and medium entrepreneurs recover from their losses. There is also the government’s “Balik-Probinsya” program.
The Zonta Club of Cebu 1 Covid-19 team was led by incoming president Gina Atienza, incoming officers Jane Panganiban, Bee Smith, Zeny Uy, Melita Go, Rufina Tanchan, Matt Baguia, advocacy chairpersons Tess Chan and Nellie Chiu, members Beverly Dayanan, Jenny Rosello, Anita Cabinan, Tata Onglatco, and with the full support of Area 3 director Stella Bernabe, president Minnie Yuvienco and the past presidents. We, too, commend the efforts of Zonta Club of Cebu 2, led by president Marilou Cañizares.
