RITM frontliners given meals by Nissan PH

MANILA: Last September 18, Nissan Philippines brought 1,100 meals for the frontliners of the Research Institute of Tropical Medicine (RITM) as part of its initiative to help assist in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Nissan Philippines President and Managing Director Atsushi Najima was accompanied by Binalot Fiesta Foods President and CEO Rommel Juan and Nissan Urvan Pilipinas President Jay Jose in distributing these meals to the RITM nurses, doctors, staff, and medical technicians who are responsible for COVID-19 testing, with RITM Officer-in-Charge, Assistant Director Dr. Beatriz Quiambao, as representative.

Najima said, “Nissan’s vision of enriching people’s lives is a commitment to our customers and our communities. We aim to contribute in the fight against the pandemic in every way we can —from ensuring the health of our people and customers in our workplaces, to supporting our medical frontliners through this donation.”

Members of the Nissan Urvan Pilipinas, a club of owners of the popular van, have supported the outreach activities of the Japanese auto brand. 

Nissan Philippines also distributed and donated meals to medical frontliners at different medical facilities in Metro Manila last June.

Along with other campaigns of Nissan dealerships nationwide, these previous outreach initiatives were highlighted in a tribute video that recognized the sacrifices and commitment of the frontliners. The video was also posted in the Nissan Philippines social media accounts.

The tribute video also included the song, “Hibla ng Alaala,” which was written by Nissan Philippines General Manager for Sales  Rolando Navarro.
