J&J Philippines Donates Health Kits to 65 Communities to Celebrate Its 65th Anniversary

Sixty-five years, 65 communities, and one goalā€”to make healthcare available to all.  

To celebrate its milestone anniversary, Johnson & Johnson (Philippines), Inc. (JJPI) is extending its signature brand of care to 65 communities nationwide through the donation of health kits in keeping with the strong ā€œCulture of Careā€ that runs throughout the organization. Ā  Distribution of the healthcare products is currently ongoing to communities in Caloocan, Rizal, Batangas, Zambales, Iloilo, and Leyte through partners ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya Foundation, Inc., World Vision Foundation Philippines, Americares Philippines, and Save the Children Philippines. In addition, hygiene kits for COVID-19 patients in Metro Manila were distributed earlier this year in partnership with Operation Compassion Philippines.Ā 

Johnson & Johnson upholds that good health is the foundation of vibrant lives, thriving communities and forward progress, and is committed to use its reach and size for good: to improve access and affordability, create healthier communities, and put a healthy mind, body, and environment within reach of everyone, everywhere. Wherever they are in the world, the Companyā€™s 130,000 global employees work to keep people well at every age and every stage of life. This concern for the health of its stakeholders is articulated in the Johnson & Johnson Credo and is brought to life by the organization for its employees, its network of partners, beneficiaries, and, most especially, its consumers.

ā€œEvery innovation, product, and breakthrough for the benefit of public health and well-being is possible because of our two most important assets, our values and our people,ā€ said the managing director of Johnson & Johnson (Philippines), Inc., Raghu Krishnan. ā€œBecause of our people, we are able to grow the positive impact that we have on the health and wellness of our communities each year.ā€  

ā€œBy reaching out to these communities, we also continue to strengthen employee engagement, which is an important focus for us as they are the driving force behind Johnson & Johnsonā€™s sustained growth,ā€ adds Sean Zantua, Human Resources Director of Johnson & Johnson (Philippines), Inc.

As a total healthcare company, Johnson & Johnson has continuously introduced new products and innovations for every need state. From iconic consumer brands to scientific breakthroughs in the field of medicine, Johnson & Johnson has helped people from all around the world to live healthier lives every day from their very first day.

This focus on making healthcare available to all is brought to life through Johnson & Johnsonā€™s portfolio of consumer health products, medical equipment, pharmaceutical products, along with its numerous partnerships and advocacies. Amid this pandemic, arguably Johnson & Johnsonā€™s most important initiative is the mobilization of its resourcesā€”a $1-billion investmentā€”to quickly develop a COVID-19 vaccine which is now being used all over the world.

ā€œWe believe it is our responsibility to improve the communities where we live and work, as we ā€˜blend heart, science and ingenuity to help change the trajectory of health for humanityā€™. As we renew this responsibility on our 65th year in the Philippines, we will push for more initiatives for our consumers, partners, employees, and communities that provide them with the care they deserve,ā€ ended Krishnan.
