The LT Group Inc. on Thursday said it donated ethyl alcohol, bottled water and face masks to frontline health workers leading the fight against Covid-19.
The holding firm of taipan Lucio Tan said it donated 400 four-liter bottles of ethyl alcohol, which forms part of the total 20,000 liters it committed to deliver to the Department of Health (DOH) for distribution to various government medical facilities.
The group also turned over to DOH some 70,000 bottles of its 350ml bottled water and 3,000 six-liter bottles of distilled drinking water plus 2,000 pieces of N95 face masks.
LT Group president Michael G. Tan thanked a combined team from Asia Brewery Inc. and Tanduay Distillers for conceptualizing and producing the initial batch of ethyl alcohol in four days.
Upon instructions of his father, Tan said the group continues to pool resources to further assist government in the Covid-19 crisis, which led to a Luzon-wide quarantine effective March 17.
The company said it will give more of its products to DOH and to other government agencies.
Total donations of the company now stands at 190,000 liters of ethyl alcohol and almost 200,000 liters of distilled drinking water.
