PRIORITIZING HEALTH. Repatriated overseas Filipinos at the Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) receive hygiene kits before they go back home to their respective provinces. In coordination with BDO Foundation, BDO Remit turned over hundreds of bags of hygiene kits to the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 and the PITX, which were then distributed to overseas Filipinos who were sent back here due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.

"Malasakit" is one of the best Filipino traits that spread throughout the country during the community quarantine. Everyone tried to help our fellow Filipinos especially our brave Frontliners in their little ways to show their gratitude and support for them, it was more contagious than the virus itself in a positive way that people from all walks of life contributed and even big companies exerted wonderful efforts to help.
