First Philippine Industrial Park vice president Ricky Carandang (second from left) and Philippine Red Cross-Batangas Chapter administrator Ronald Generoso (third from left) shake hands after they agreed on a joint project to organize in Tanauan City, Batangas Red Cross volunteers who will be trained to respond rapidly to emergencies and disasters. With them are FPIP external relations manager John Carlo Navalta (left) and PRC-Tanauan City branch head Mark Jerick Paz. Both parties agree to help each other in mobilizing grassroots-level volunteers who will train and familiarize themselves on Red Cross 143 Program. Red Cross created RC143 to build community resilience where RC143 volunteers—composed of one leader and 43 members—serve as the eyes, ears, hands and feet of the PRC.
