Hope and Heroes- Cobra Energy Drink donates P2 Million to HERO Foundation in support of educational programs

Hope and Heroes. The heroism of our soldiers continues to be highlighted especially with the ongoing battle against terrorists in Marawi. While the troops are putting their lives on the line to serve and protect the nation, their families, particularly their children, must also be taken care of during difficult times. HERO (Help, Educate and Rear Orphans) Foundation, an organization that provides support and educational stipends to military orphans, received a P2 million donation from the Lucio Tan-owned Asia Brewery Inc.’s (ABI) Cobra Energy Drink, with Dr. Lucio Tan himself (3rd from left) turning over the check donation to HERO Foundation. 

Cobra Energy Drink supports bigger Ironman 70.3, now on 5th year

Celebrating five years of pushing the mind, body, and spirit

It’s only a few more weeks until the toughest race in the nation, and athletes are girding themselves for another round of extreme triathlon action. Pushing the limits has never been so personal, so palpable, so potent, but for the second time in Cebu, it’s just another test of survival of the toughest.

Now on its 5th successful year, Cobra Ironman 70.3 Philippines is back on the shores of Cebu for a one-day-only race this August 4. With more than 2,000 participants from all over Asia-Pacific, the country’s premier triathlon engages athletes in a 1.2-mile swim, a two-loop 56-mile bike course, and a 13.1-mile two-loop run course.

“Cobra has been a long-time partner of Ironman 70.3 Philippines. From Camsur to Cebu, we have supported this sport and its warriors since it first started in 2009. We’ve witnessed how these athletes thrive, persist, and survive, and Cobra Energy Drink is proud to be celebrating another milestone of empowering their minds, bodies, and spirits,” imparts Abe Cipriano, AVP for Marketing, Non-Alcoholic Beverages.
