Among hikers and climbers, the number one rule is to travel light. With less baggage to burden and slow you down, you can swiftly ascend the steep incline and hurdle obstacles. In the same way, as we prepare to climb the mountain that is year 2024 and conquer the cliffs and slopes along the route.
In the spirit of figuratively and physically unburdening our loads, and at the same time, sharing our blessings with those in need, Converge ICT Solutions Inc. is taking part in Caritas Manila's Segunda Mana, the charitable organization's far-reaching donations in-kind program.
Caritas Manila solicits second-hand clothes, gadgets, furniture, and books which are sent to their Charity outlets to be sold and converted to cash.
Micro businesses supported
These benefit over 5,000 vocational, technical and college scholars nationwide and support the livelihood of over 300 micro entrepreneurs and their families from the informal sector.
"At Converge, we are committed to creating a positive impact in the communities that we serve and this partnership with Caritas Manila supports that mission, especially for those who are most in need. We are thankful to Caritas Manila for allowing us to take part in their Segunda Mana donations in-kind program and evoke compassion and kindness among our ranks during this blessed season and as we prepare to welcome the new year," Converge vice president and head of corporate communications and public relations Jay-Anne Encarnado said.
