"By engaging with customers through this, we can build stronger relationships, enhance brand reputation, and create a positive impact on society," he added.

“This marks the first CSR initiative of GNPD in the Visayas region, and we are deeply grateful to be able to bring our HUSAY Education program with the goal of elevating educational opportunities for Leyteño students,” said Arcel Madrid, Associate Vice President for Community Relations of GNPD.
