PAGCOR donates patient transport vehicles to 5 more LGUs, institutions

The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has donated patient transport vehicles (PTVs) to five more local government units and institutions, supporting President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s initiative to provide nationwide emergency response.

The latest recipients include the municipality of Benito Soliven in Isabela, San Pedro City in Laguna, the Polytechnic University of the Philippines, Ospital ng Parañaque, and the Joint Task Force Unit Ilocos headquarters.

PAGCOR Chairperson and CEO Alejandro Tengco stated that each donation moves them closer to making essential medical services more accessible to Filipinos.

This initiative aims to strengthen the medical and disaster-response capabilities of local government units, public institutions, and security forces.

The donation will significantly enhance emergency response, particularly for low-income communities and allow hospitals to immediately respond to urgent cases.

Since February last year, PAGCOR has donated a total of 35 PTVs across the country.
