BROTHER PH JOINS RELAY FOR LIFE

-

Now on its 6th year, Brother Philippine­s shows its unwavering support to the Philippine Cancer Society with its participat­ion in the Relay for Life, one of the main causes supported by the Brother Group globally. Brother Internatio­nal Philippine­s Corporatio­n (Philippine Sales Subsidiary) and Brother Industries Philippine­s, Inc. (Philippine Manufactur­ing arm), expressed their support to the cause through a combined donation to the Philippine Cancer Society amounting to PHP400,000, a special performanc­e by employees, and most importantl­y, dedication to the cause via their participat­ion in the 12-hour relay. The relay’s long hours are symbolic in the fight against cancer because of the premise that ‘cancer does not sleep’.

“Relay for Life is a vital part of the core CSR program of The Brother Group and with the company’s annual participat­ion, we hope that it’ll serve as a reminder to our employees not only of the importance of developing a sense of unity but also that there’s a bigger world out there and we’re all responsibl­e for it,” says Glenn Hocson, president of Brother Internatio­nal Philippine­s, Corporatio­n.

The Relay for Life was held in the Quezon City Memorial.
