Magandang araw, mga ka-PIKO! The fundraising for the frontliners at the Phillipine General Hospital raised a total of KRW 663,000 last week! Maraming salamat sa lahat ng nagpadala. The donations collected will be sent through the PGH Medical Foundation, which will be used to buy food, supplies, and equipment in support of the frontliners.

In addition to collecting for the PGH frotliners, we will also be collecting donations for The Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (Diliman) Foundation, Incorporated (MBBFI), to raise funds for the Philippine Genome Center (PGC), the National Insititute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (NIMBB), and the UP Health Center, to allow them to conduct more testing for COVID-19. Donations collected for the MBFI will be coursed through Ms. Erica Españo (Korea University Sejong Campus).

Kindly send your pledges until next week to our PIKO Shinhan bank account (c/o Alfredo Alcantara Jr., PIKO Treasurer), account number 100-034-153017.

We once again thank our fellow countrymen who are risking their lives in fighting the virus and putting in the hours to understand more about the enemy. We cannot thank them enough for their service and sacrifice for our country and our fellow Filipinos.
