GNPower Mariveles Energy Center Ltd. Co (GMEC) launched its first Project Saysay on January 31, 2023. The project with the January birthday celebrators and patients from a dialysis center in Brgy. Lucanin, Mariveles, Bataan.
Project Saysay is a Plant-a-Love community outreach and an employee-led volunteer activity where birthday celebrators from GMEC choose a community or a group to celebrate their special day with a cause.
For January, GMEC celebrators made their birthday worthwhile with eighty-seven (87) dialysis patients of St. Nicholas Dialysis Center and became a beacon of hope to their chosen beneficiary.
The celebrators decided to provide the dialysis patients with one voucher for free dialysis treatment which is the primary need of the beneficiary.
“Ang sarap sa pakiramdam na alam kong nakatulong ako sa maliit na paraan, at sana marami pa kaming matulungan as a company.”, one of the January birthday celebrators, Mary Magdalene Augmentado from the Finance and Accounting expressed her gratitude on partaking in this memorable experience.
Ms. Rowena P. Batac, Admin Manager, thanked the company and the celebrators for their initiative and for being an effective instrument of hope and touching the hearts of communities in Mariveles. Ms. Batac mentioned that it was their first time witnessing an organization that helped their dialysis center.
The celebrators capped off the activity with the hope and smile of every dialysis patient with their surprise photo opportunity with inspirational signages and handed each a tumbler and neck pillow as a gift.
Project Saysay aims to be an avenue for collective action of employee volunteers while uplifting the communities it serves.
