THE Philippine Red Cross (PRC) recently conducted a gift-giving activity at the Center for Health Improvement and Life Development (CHILD) Haus as part of its commitment to reach and uplift the most vulnerable.

Over 50 children and teenagers battling cancer enjoyed the toys and hygiene kits provided by PRC.

“It is the spirit of volunteerism that runs in both the PRC and CHILD Haus. We, at the Philippine Red Cross, along with our Chairman Richard Gordon, are grateful for the opportunity to support these brave children,” said PRC Secretary-General Dr. Gwen Pang.

Dr. Pang also mentioned that, in addition to the toys, PRC stands ready to provide blood assistance to children battling leukemia. Since 2022, the PRC has provided several units of blood to cancer patients living in CHILD Haus.

CHILD Haus founder “Mader” Ricky Reyes expressed gratitude to the PRC for its assistance in sustaining the needs of cancer-stricken children.
