Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) Chairman Mike F. Planas joins anew First Lady Marie Louise “Liza” Araneta Marcos as she brings free medical consultations, health services and government support among residents of Carmen, Davao Del Norte through her LAB For ALL Project.
The LAB for ALL Project, which stands for “Laboratoryo, Konsulta at Gamot Para sa Lahat”, was initiated by the First Lady in partnership with the local government units, other national government agencies, and private partners to provide health care services to the vulnerable and disadvantaged populations.
“In behalf of the Philippine Postal Corporation, we affirm our strong support for the LAB for ALL initiative to bring government services as well as medical and health care assistance directly to the Filipinos, particularly the poor and vulnerable ones”, Chairman Planas said.
