Sony Philippines Supports Save the Children’s Typhoon Ulysses Emergency Response with Half Million Donation

The onslaught of Typhoon Ulysses (international name: Vamco) in mid-November brought massive flooding and widespread damages in Metro Manila and regions of Luzon, most especially in the Cagayan Valley that heavily affected more than 4.6 million people, including children.

In response to the emergency crisis, Sony Philippines raised PhP 500,000 for the victims of Typhoon Ulysses which will be donated to Save the Children Philippines. This included donations from both company and employees in a matching gift program.

Since 2010, Sony Corporation, headquartered in Japan, has had a strong corporate partnership with Save the Children.

Save the Children is the world’s leading independent children’s organization and has been working in the Philippines for over three decades, protecting and supporting children in need, saving lives in emergencies, and advocating for children’s rights.
