MANILA, 27 April 2021<\/strong> – Underscoring the concept of helping and sharing in these challenging times, AirAsia joined hundreds of thousands of Filipinos in sustaining community pantries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Community pantries offer a day\u2019s relief to those whose livelihoods were severely impacted by the ongoing economic crisis brought by the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, AirAsia handed #AlwaysREDy care kits which contain hand sanitizers, face masks and sanitary wipes along with canned goods, bottled water, and biscuits to select community pantries in Pasay and Paranaque City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The donated items are a product of the internal \u201cBayanihan\u201d effort among Allstars as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility program under the #AlwaysREDy project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AirAsia\u2019s partner establishments such as Lifebouy and Rebisco have also donated hygiene products, biscuits and breads respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AirAsia Philippines Spokesperson Steve Dailisan said<\/strong>, \u201cThough the concept of community pantries is no longer new as we constantly exhibit \u201cBayanihan\u201d during calamities or crises, we can\u2019t help but be amazed on how Filipino ingenuity arises—sharing more with less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur Allstars are #AlwaysREDy to support these collaborative measures as it is very much in line with our core values of making it happen and the sustainability spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThough the end of the pandemic is already in sight, we still need to hold the line together to eventually break the chain of hunger and suffering by showing random acts of kindness one day, one community, at a time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AirAsia also took part in various community outreach programs extending much needed help to typhoon-stricken provinces such as Cagayan and Catanduanes which are not yet part of its route network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
