In a noteworthy partnership with the Philippine Red Cross (PRC), Digido Finance Corp. (DFC), the operator of the acclaimed consumer finance platform Digido and provider of in-app and in-store finance solutions via UnaCash, has embarked on a series of initiatives aimed at promoting safety and quality life-saving projects within their organization.
This collaboration commenced earlier this month with comprehensive first aid training sessions for DFC employees and management. The training encompassed fundamental principles of rapid intervention to alleviate suffering, proper techniques for applying bandages to various types of injuries, and hands-on instruction in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The primary objective of this initiative is to ensure that individuals within the organizations are well-prepared to respond effectively in emergency situations.
During the week of September 18, Kimberly Rose Daitol, RMT, the Donor Recruitment Officer of PRC, delivered an inspiring talk titled “Be A Hero and Save Lives.” Her words underscored the significance and safety of blood donation, and those who were medically cleared actively participated in the blood donation process.
These activities coincided with the global observance of World First Aid Day in September, emphasizing the worldwide importance of first aid as a means of humanitarian empowerment.
For 75 years, the PRC has been a lifeline for Filipinos in times of crisis, continuously enhancing its services and logistics to better serve vulnerable communities.
In line with their commitment to aligning the company’s mission with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), this collaboration reinforces the organization’s dedication to spearheading initiatives falling under the UN’s pillars of Good Health and Well-Being, Quality Education, and Reduced Inequalities.
As part of their ongoing commitment to creating a positive impact within the Filipino community through their services, Digido and UnaCash have recognized the potential to contribute to similar initiatives, extending beyond the confines of their organization.
These efforts are designed to further solidify their commitment to their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) plan, underscoring their dedication to enhancing community well-being and sustainability in their respective business practices.
