Sogod resort answers Boholanos’ call for help

ALEGRE Beach Resort of Sogod, Cebu answered Boholanos’ call for help.

Shedding off their corporate coats, a 12-man team headed by Dottie Wurgler-Cronin, general manager, went to Buenavista, Bohol, one of the areas that were badly affected by the 7.2-magnitude earthquake.

In coordination with the Department of Social Welfare and Development and the local government of Buenavista through Mayor Ronald Lowell Tirol, the barangay of Puting Bato, Buenavista with 117 affected families was identified as recipient of Alegre’s relief assistance.

“We want to help and we want to learn more on how else we can help” said Cronin. She and her team handed out plastic bags overflowing with items mothers need to run a household – rice, assorted canned goods, biscuits, milk, cereal, soap, shampoo, water and some over the counter medicines such as Paracetamol for both kids and adults. Each household received an Alegre Resort towel.
