LBC Moving to 'Flatten The Curve': P50M for Mass Program

LBC heeds the government’s call to move for the nation, during this time of COVID-19, and commits Php 50 million worth of supply of (washable/reusable) 2-ply masks, to support Filipino communities and mitigate the virus’ spread in at-risk areas. This affirmative action is part of LBC’s response, and in coordination with the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), the temporary shortage of masks and distribution of these in densely populated areas of the country will be addressed. “The current situation calls for people to do their ‘part’: be it by staying at home or having to risk their own safety by going to work, to treat the sick. For us at LBC, our ‘part’ is to move-- together with our courageous frontliners, and join the fight,” said Executive Director of the LBC Foundation, Nena L. Wuthrich.

“LBC is starting this mask program with hopes of being one with all Filipinos--to ‘flatten the curve.’ This initiative is also set to assist in educating the public more, on the vital function of masks to protect not just themselves, but also others around them. We believe that masks can and will save lives,” Wuthrich adds. This initiative concurs with the recent announcement of The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases, mandating the public to wear any type of mask before leaving their place of residence, to minimize or if not totally to prevent the transmission of the Covid-19 virus from one person to another.

Getting Parcels Across the Globe Safely with LBC

A few months ago, Mrs. Victoria Santos, a Filipina nurse working in the UK instructed her family in Cebu to send important legal documents to her in London. The documents were delivered three weeks late as the courier company she trusted misplaced the shipment.  In another instance, Mr. David Paredes, a software engineer working in Canada left his iPad in Manila while on vacation last month. He asked his wife to send the iPad via courier to Canada as soon as possible because he needed it for work. When it was delivered, his iPad was severely damaged and broken.

These painful incidences pushed both Mrs. Santos and Mr. Paredes to go back to the basics- and rely on the one courier who built their name from the ground up on the strength of their expertise and hard work: LBC.

LBC knows that when OFWs require something sent to them from the Philippines, these items must be important, valuable, and urgently needed. LBC International Sending leverages LBC’s worldwide network of branches, agents, and partners to ensure that OFWs are provided with the superior support services that only an experienced and leading courier and cargo company like LBC can provide. Additionally, LBC International cargo shipping rates to several popular OFW destinations like the USA, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Japan, UAE, Taiwan, Malaysia and the UK are very competitive and reasonable.

Through their International Sending Services, LBC makes sure that important shipments like passports, documents, gadgets, photos and similar items are handled and delivered with the utmost care, security, priority, safety, and urgency to our kababayans abroad.  With their brand reputation and unmatched service experience, LBC International Sending Services would have delivered Mrs. Santos’ documents on time and delivered Mr. Paredes’ Ipad without a scratch. This is the reason why then and until now, LBC continues to be the most trusted courier, cargo, logistics, and remittance service provider of the global Filipino.
