Chummy Chum Joins SM Foundation’s Medical Mission at SM Dasmariñas

     The medical mission started on a slow place because doctors came in late. Most of those who went there early were senior citizens. What is considered as most notable is that SM Foundation provides complete medicine good for one (1) week.  

     CCF sees that the medical mission that SM Foundation conducts is a big help especially to the poor. And CCF works hand in hand with them to provide cheer to poor children. More power to SM Foundation.

But some just gave up because in taking care of the sick children because they can’t take it anymore. Some just bring these kids to centers and let others take care of them and some are abandoned forever.

She expressed her admiration to our president’s dedication and the unconditional help that he gives to the poor Filipino children inspite of him being a foreigner. 

    That kind lady doctor turns out to be connected with the SM Foundation. 

     The first charity tie-up between CCF and SM Foundation was held at the event center of SM City in Baliuag, Bulacan. CCF now realized why SM continues to be blessed.
