In response to the 7.2 earthquake that hit Bohol and its neighboring provinces in the Visayas, companies and organizations across the country are encouraged to enlist their offices as drop-off centers where individuals and groups can send in their non-cash donations for the earthquake victims.
Interested business establishments and organizations can express their intent to be a drop-off center by sending their company name, location, address, contact person, and contact number to fleire@gbgcebu.org.
