Grab, Move It Distributes Aid To 1,000 Families


Grab Philippines and Move It distribute relief packages to over 1,000 families, including drivers and local residents, in areas of Cavite and Laguna badly hit by Tropical Storm Kristine. Each package was filled with essential items like rice, canned goods, and bathroom supplies.

The leading ride hailing app and homegrown moto-taxi platform also have comprehensive calamity-assistance programs in place geared at providing both financial aid and in-kind support to driver- and delivery-partners severely affected by the recent calamity. Through the GrabCares and Move It Malasakit programs, partners can easily apply for assistance through a streamlined application process available on their driver app.

“Sa tuwing may kalamidad, kaming mga delivery-partners na hindi gaanong naapektuhan ay nakikipagtulungan na agad sa Grab para mag-volunteer sa mga ganitong klaseng relief operations. Sa pamamagitan ng aming community channels, na-identify namin agad ang mga kabahayan na nangangailangan ng agarang tulong. Itong mga ganitong klaseng impormasyon ang ibinabahagi namin sa Grab para sa mas mapabilis ang pagtugon at pagtulong,” shares Perpe Mahinay Disoacido Jr. of Grab Ugnayan Advocates, a network of Grab delivery-partners.

Aguinaldo Larioso, a community leader of Move It riders, also takes pride in the community’s bayanihan spirit. “Nagpapasalamat kami sa Move It at sa Grab sa tulong na ibinabahagi nila sa komunidad. At saludo kami sa bawat rider na piniling hindi bumiyahe makapag-abot lamang ng tulong sa mga kapwa naming rider na nasalanta ng bagyo. Buhay na buhay ang bayanihan sa Move It and Grab.”
