BLOOD BROTHERS AID INC. SUPPORTS WORLD HEMOPHILIA MONTH

Characterized by the inability for blood to clot properly, hemophilia is a hereditary medical condition that occurs in males more often than in females, and could affect the young as much as the elderly. In special cases, a change in an individual’s genes may also cause him to acquire it within his lifetime. Though hemophilia is rare, the World Federation of Hemophilia states that 75% of people around the world with bleeding disorders have not yet been diagnosed.

 April is World Hemophilia month, and Blood Brothers Aid Inc., a non-profit organization based in the Philippines, aims to raise awareness about hemophilia in the country and to get more Filipinos to recognize the problem and help through blood or monetary donations.

 Do you know someone who may suffer from hemophilia?

Following an injury, a person with hemophilia may take a longer time to heal from his wounds because his blood lacks the protein (clotting factor) instrumental in clotting.

            The year 2012 marked a milestone for Isla LPG Corporation, having successfully re-branded and transitioned Solane from Shellane. High acceptance in the market was evidenced by the over-all volume performance that increased by 6%, complemented by a 10% increase in distributor base.

            Isla LPG Corporation positions Solane as a product that not only caters to the domestic household market, but also serves other segments such as commercial, industrial and autogas. It is the only LPG company that provides anything from pure propane to pure butane and everything in between, at the highest quality level.

Dunkin’ Donuts Philippines Celebrates 32nd anniversary with Red Cross

They say our blood is sweet, especially if we donate it for a good cause. Blood donation has been one of the most important cause that companies give value to.  Golden Donuts Inc. Is one of the company that value this  sweet sacrifice.

In 1981, Golden Donuts Inc. was founded as the exclusive licensee in the Philippines of the world’s most famous coffee and donut chain, Dunkin’ Donuts. For 32 years, Dunkin’ Donuts continued to serve Filipinos with mouthwatering donuts, freshly brewed coffee, and savory sandwiches that have become part of the Filipino’s everyday life.

As part of its advocacy to give back to the community that supported it all these years, Dunkin’ Donuts Philippines celebrated its anniversary with its eighth annual blood drive in partnership with the Philippine National Red Cross (PNRC).

Themed “Dugong Alay, Dugtong ng Buhay,” the blood-letting aims to help those who are in need of blood transfusion by holding an open blood donation with PNRC .

“Blood donation is close to our heart, because it is critical in sustaining the greatest gift we can give – life. While donating goods and other services are now easier than ever, nowadays, it’s still hard to find a blood donor, especially in an emergency,” said Vingie Valenzuela, Personnel Resource Manager of Golden Donuts Inc.

Employees and executives were joined by Ms. Rosa Rosal, PNRC governor and chairperson of the Red Cross blood program, as well as Dunkin’ Donuts’ brand ambassador, Derek Ramsay. Ramsay helped to keep up the spirits of all the donors.

According to Valenzuela, “We are always excited by the turnout, and we have an average of 500 persons participating every year. Since we partner with PNRC, we adhere to the highest standards of health to ensure quality blood donations. And of course, to ensure that all donors are well after each donation, we have free-flowing Dunkin’ Donuts for everyone to enjoy.”

“This is our way of saying thank you to our customers who have stayed loyal with us all these years, and we look forward to giving more in the years to come.”

Krispy Kreme Shares the Gift of Joy through the Read Along Program

While others enjoy a normal life, there are others who are not. But what is a normal life anyway, is it having all your five sensors functioning well. Have you ever tried to understand what others may feel just because they don’t have the capacity that we have, to hear.

Have you ever laughed your heart out at a joke delivered by a Deaf friend, not because you heard the words together, but because both of you understood the essence of the punch line? Or have you simultaneously learned dancing with your Deaf sister not because you can both hear the music, but because both of you had the rhythm to move?

The Deaf and the hearing are different, not in their senses, but special in the way they make use of them.

With the imperative need to connect with people who see beauty even if they can’t hear the sound of it, brands and organizations are coming together to break the barrier and move a step towards change.

Furthering its Heritage of Sharing

With the distinct confectionery experience brought by its delectable variety of doughnuts, baked goods, and coffee, Krispy Kreme has been touching the hearts and tickling the palates of Filipinos since it arrived in the Philippines six years ago. And as it continues its sweet success in the country, Krispy Kreme is on the move to bring everyone more reasons to smile—not only with its mouth-watering delights but also with projects that resonate with the lives of their valued customers.
