August Symposium

Together With Cebu: KRBC partners with Operation Blessing Foundation Philippines Inc.

Published: November 26, 2025

Last October 7, 2025, Kato Repro Biotech Center, in collaboration with Operation Blessing Foundation Philippines, Inc., launched a donation drive to help the people of Cebu and support the rebuilding of communities affected by the 6.9-magnitude earthquake that struck the city on the evening of September 30.

The powerful quake hit Bogo City, Cebu, recording the highest instrumental intensity of VII. Authorities have reported damage across 89 cities and municipalities, affecting more than 360,000 individuals.

Thousands were forced into evacuation centers, with residents urgently calling for food, water, and shelter. Fifty-three localities in Cebu have since been placed under a state of calamity. Within a week after the earthquake, over 8,000 aftershocks were recorded by PHIVOLCS, 34 of which were strong enough to be felt.

This devastation in Cebu serves as a reminder that care knows no boundaries — within or beyond the clinic walls.

To contribute to ongoing relief and rehabilitation efforts, Kato Repro Biotech Center partnered with Operation Blessing Foundation Philippines, Inc. in a shared mission of hope. Through Operation Blessing’s official QR codes and bank details, Kato patients and supporters were encouraged to extend help in any amount they could give. KRBC published the donation drive on its official Facebook and Instagram pages, providing various options for those who wish to donate through Operation Blessing’s channels.

All funds gathered from the campaign were directly allocated to aid and restoration efforts in the affected communities of Cebu. Through this support, medical care was provided to 426 individuals, 850 food packs and 200 jerry cans of clean water were distributed, and access to safe drinking water in Brgy. Maya, Daanbantayan was successfully restored.

In total, over 1,050 families received vital, life-saving assistance during this time of great need.

This initiative reflects Kato Repro Biotech Center’s commitment to care — for our patients, our communities, and our nation. It is our hope that this effort inspires more acts of compassion and unity within and beyond our community.
