On Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan)

To our dear Kasambuhays,

 

We at Nestlé Philippines join the nation in efforts to help relieve the suffering of thousands of families who have been adversely affected by Typhoon Yolanda.

 

We are working very closely with the Philippine National Red Cross, government agencies and other organizations who have the capability and infrastructure to immediately deliver relief goods to the victims of this tragic calamity.

 

With a strong spirit of volunteerism, our employees are also providing assistance to the typhoon victims, including donations of cash, clothes, food and other basic necessities.  A bank account has been set up for Nestlé companies and employees from all over the world who would like to help in this time of need.  

 

Meanwhile, all our employees in the hard hit areas have now been accounted for and we are in touch with them.

 

Our thoughts and heartfelt prayers are with our Kasambuhays in the Visayas region in this most difficult time, as they grapple with the excruciating pain of loss.
