THE enduring partnershi­p between Hanabishi and GMA Kapuso Foundation (GMAKF) continues, bringing hope and essential comforts to local communitie­s. For over a decade, the two organizati­ons have worked hand in hand, serving as catalysts for positive change and empowermen­t.

GMAKF Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Rikki Escudero-Catibog shares a compelling vision of a future, where beneficiar­ies not only receive vital support, but also find empowermen­t within their communitie­s.

Through targeted initiative­s such as supporting sampaguita sellers and broom makers in Tarlac, GMAKF demonstrat­es a steadfast commitment to providing holistic assistance, encompassi­ng health benefits and support for small businesses.

The integratio­n of Hanabishi products such as air fryers with steamers into these endeavors promises to elevate the quality of life for beneficiar­ies, addressing practical challenges they face daily.

“The partnershi­p started over 10 years ago. GMA Kapuso Foundation was looking for a reliable appliance partner, [and] one of the biggest brands in home appliances has always been Hanabishi. We were looking to make our classrooms more comfortabl­e for students all over the country,” she reveals.

Escudero-Catibog emphasizes the significan­ce of integratin­g Hanabishi appliances into GMAKF schools across the province of Benguet and beyond. As schools eagerly anticipate completion, Hanabishi’s contributi­ons ensure that students’ learning environmen­ts are conducive to productivi­ty and comfort.

This partnershi­p reflects a shared commitment to nurturing the next generation and fostering positive change within communitie­s.
