“On behalf of PRC and the many beneficiaries that we serve on the ground, we are very grateful to partners like Chevron who are helping us in the relief efforts not only in Tacloban but in the other affected areas as well. The long partnership between PRC and Chevron has reached such mature levels that we no longer have to knock on Chevron’s; instead you call us long before we send out our letters of donation.” Pang shares.

“Chevron is committed to helping the people of the region begin to recover in the aftermath of this tragic event,” said Steve Green, Chevron vice president of Policy, Government and Public Affairs.” While super typhoon Yolanda has inflicted great damage to many local communities, we are certain that it will not break the spirit or resolve of the Philippine people.”

We are working as fast as we could to make our stations operational and provide fuel to help out in the relief. CPI will be a partner in their efforts of rebuilding Tacloban and the other cities affected by the super typhoon.”
