PUBLICLY listed firm Vivant Corp.
and its subsidiaries have joined the business community in helping local
government units (LGUs) address the needs of communities affected by the
pandemic.
Vivant assistance to several LGUs in
Cebu, Luzon and Mindanao included rice, canned goods, personal protective
equipment (PPE) suits and masks, medicines, medical supplies and hygiene kits.
The company helped set up the Covid-19 response centers of Cebu City and
Bantayan, Cebu by providing beds and mattresses.
Vivant Corp. President Arlo A. G.
Sarmiento said the donation of food, medical supplies and beds is part of the
corporation’s commitment to assist the government in dealing with the crisis.
Many LGUs faced the challenge of
preventing the spread of the pandemic while providing food for constituents,
who were without jobs during the quarantine period.
Vivant also made donations to other
LGUs and government hospitals in Metro Cebu and Palawan. Vivant’s subsidiaries
in La Union, Palawan and Misamis Oriental have also been helping their
respective LGUs to address community needs.
“The Vivant Group will continue to
help our local government partners find solutions that will enable our
communities to adapt to the new normal,” said Sarmiento.
Vivant is one of the few Cebu-based
companies listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange. It is a management and
holding company with investments in the energy sector and a growing interest in
infrastructure development.
