J&T Express and Realme aid typhoon Agaton victims

Weeks following the onslaught of tropical storm Agaton over Eastern Visayas in mid-April, communities continue to bear brunt of the impact with many still displaced and in need of aid. Responding to calls for assistance, the country’s leading express delivery company, J&T Express, and top global technology brand Realme organized a joint relief operation for typhoon Agaton victims. The residents in Brgy. Buenavista, Abuyog, and Leyte were among the worst-hit towns at the hands of the typhoon.

Hygiene Kits and Powerbanks

J&T Express and Realme provided hygiene kits and Realme Powerbank 2 with a 10,000 mAh battery capacity. Over 220 affected families who barely received assistance due to their remote location received them.

“In time of adversities, especially on what happened to the residents of Abuyog, Leyte, it breaks our hearts to see how the people suffered in this kind of situation. Without hesitation, J&T Express took the opportunity to give its helping hand as we believe in the spirit of “bayanihan”. We are also thankful for our partner, realme, for working with us on this initiative for the people in Leyte.”

Zoe Chi, Vice President of J&T Express

The relief operation was supported by the local government of Abuyog. Mayor Lemuel Gin Traya of Abuyog from Leyte was present during the distribution activity. The joint effort was also assisted by MSWDO Bernarda Belacho and Brgy. Buenavista Chairman, Pio Alvero, together with the Philippine National Police officers of Abuyog.

“No effort is small during these tough times. In line with Realme’s commitment to give back and pay it forward, we’ve joined forces with J&T to provide our Realme Powerbank 2 to help power up the families’ mobile devices since electricity lines are down in the area. We hope that these power banks can help them communicate with their loved ones and get back to their daily lives soon. We are grateful that we were able to help these families support their most urgent needs.”

Austine Huang, VP for Marketing of Realme

Prior to this activity, J&T Express has already extended logistical support to facilitate the fast delivery of in-kind donations. Many NGOs and partners offered help in affected provinces despite tough conditions and inaccessible roads. J&T Express has always been an advocate of the Bayanihan spirit.
