Amdocs, a leading global provider of software and services to communications and media companies, has donated and turned over food packs to Globe Telecom to aid in the ongoing relief operations for communities affected by the ongoing eruption of Taal Volcano.
Amdocs has been a long-time strategic partner of Globe and has also collaborated with Globe on several initiatives throughout the years to support local communities, as part of its corporate social responsibility program.
The food packages were provided to 306 families seeking shelter at Mataasnakahoy Municipal Hall in Lipa City, Batangas. Meal packing and distribution were done through the assistance of Globe volunteers, members of the Philippine Coast Guard, and the local government unit.
