LG, together with UNTV and WISH 107.5, stands together in the fight against COVID-19

LG together with other groups and institutions such as UNTV and WISH 107.5 have all come together and mobilized their resources in order to respond to the COVID-19 crisis. This constitute their donations, fundraising drives, and in some cases actual buildings built specifically dedicated in treating COVID-19 patients.

To help out the frontliners, LG Philippines donated brand new home appliance donations such as refrigerators and washing machines to BMPI’s dedicated COVID-19 facility situated in Malolos, Bulacan.

Breakthrough and Milestones Production International (BMPI), operator of UNTV 37 and WISH 107.5 are two of the groups from the private sector that stepped up in providing much needed help to their locale. BMPI conceptualized a COVID-19 facility that acted as an answer to the urgent need in accommodating the rising number of patients that were spilling over from other health institutions.

BMPI’s dedicated COVID-19 facility were unveiled in Malolos, Bulacan.  The 3-storey building has 35 patient rooms and 18 quarter rooms for doctors, nurses, and other medical staff, totalling to a respectable 53 rooms.

LG Electronics Philippines remaining committed to the call of raising the comfort of both patients and health workers alike, outfitted the facility with a staggering number of home appliances. LG donated sixty five (65) 28” LED Monitors, four (4) Top Load Washing Machines, five (5) Top Mount Refrigerators and two (2) 1HP Split-Type Air conditioners with a combined amount of over 1 million Pesos. Each patient room, which will have patients that need to be isolated for at least 14 days have an LG LED Monitor to keep them company while the heavy duty washing machines, refrigerators, and air-conditioners provide a big help for the staff staying in and taking care of the covid-19 patients.

LG Managing Director Inkwun Heo shared his thoughts regarding the donation, stating “Even as the country transitions to a General Community Quarantine and restrictions are slowly lessened, Filipinos and health institutions still need all the help they can get. As long as we can lend our assistance, we’re more than happy to oblige”.
