MANILA, PHILIPPINES — To help Filipinos affected by super typhoon Odette, Insular Life (InLife) and its corporate social arm Insular Foundation carried out disaster response initiatives.

InLife and Insular Foundation raised ₱2 million to help families in typhoon-affected communities in Palawan, Visayas, and Mindanao. Additionally, the Insular Foundation provided ₱1.02 million worth of food packages and sleeping mats. The Foundation partnered with NORFIL Foundation and the Philippine Association of Social Workers Cebu Chapter to reach out to 380 families in Mandaue City, Cebu; and with the League of Corporate Foundations to help 200 families in South Cebu. The Foundation also worked with the Philippine Relief and Development Services, Inc. to provide two-week food supplies for 150 families in Dinagat and Siargao islands, and Surigao.

InLife also extended assistance to its policyholders in typhoon-affected areas, as well as its building tenants in its Cebu office.
