Send donations to Red Cross through Globe's GCASH

MANILA, Philippines - Globe Telecom on Friday announced that Filipinos can use GCASH to send aid to the victims of super typhoon Yolanda.

The telco said its subscribers can send their donations to the Philippine National Red Cross, whose members have been in Eastern Visayas even before the super typhoon devastated the region.

To send cash donations to the Red Cross: Globe subscribers can text DONATE<space>AMOUNT<space>4-digit M-PIN<space>REDCROSS and send to 2882.

Globe subscribers, who wish to donate to other government and non-government partner-organizations of Globe, may just dial *143# through their mobile phones and choose GCASH>Others Services>Donate>Amount>MPIN>Select Charity.

“We encourage our subscribers to take part in helping thousands of Typhoon Yolanda-affected communities especially those in the Visayas and Mindanao regions in a way that’s easy, safe, and hassle-free. We hope that through GCASH, concerned citizens who may not be able to join relief operations can do their share in helping rebuild the nation. No amount is big or small, as these donations will surely go a long way and mean a lot to our kababayans in typhoon-stricken areas,” shared GXI President Paolo Baltao.

The GCASH donation facility is part of the telco’s Bangon Pinoy program, an enterprise-wide disaster response initiative that aims to have a unified system for donations, relief efforts, and corporate social responsibility programs across products and services.
