The Metrobank and GT Capital Holdings group stand with all Filipinos in facing the challenges brought on by COVID-19 as they committed to provide P200 million in the fight against the pandemic.
The Ty family-led companies are pledging support to manage the disruption and provide meaningful assistance to customers, employees and partners who most need help in these difficult times.
Aside from the assistance already being extended to impacted customers and displaced employees, Metrobank and GT Capital pledged P200 million towards initiatives that directly support the fight against the virus.
These initiatives will be managed by the respective foundations of the group and will start with efforts to produce the test kits developed by the University of the Philippines-National Institutes of Health (UP-NIH) and the purchase of personal protective equipment (PPE) for frontline health workers.
The group said it would continuously monitor the evolving situation and implement further measures as needed.
