Local restaurant chain Jollibee Group demonstrated its dedication to environmental conservation by taking part in the most recent cleanup effort organized by the Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) at Barangay Poblacion, Biñan, Laguna. Participating in the aforementioned action were thirty employee volunteers from different Jollibee, Mang Inasal, and Greenwich locations.
As part of the LLDA’s “Abot-Kamay Para sa Laguna de Bay: Mission in Action-Solid Waste Recovery” initiative, some 670 kilograms of plastics were retrieved from the cleanup effort. The program’s goal is to lessen the harm that plastic garbage does to the ecosystems around Laguna de Bay.
“Safeguarding our environment is a collective responsibility, and we are glad to continue actively supporting LLDA’s waste recovery program, consistent with our sustainability commitments,” shared Pepot Miñana, Jollibee Group Chief Sustainability and Public Affairs Officer. “We are also grateful to our employee volunteers, who bring to life our sustainability commitments not only within Jollibee Group, but also to the communities we serve.”
In observance of Earth Day on April 30, staff volunteers from several Jollibee, Chowking, Greenwich, and Burger King locations joined LLDA in a cleanup project in Barangay Sucat, Muntinlupa City. Additionally, the company fed the 200 volunteers from various groups.
These programs are a component of the Jollibee Group’s Sustainability Agenda, “Joy for Tomorrow,” which is a concerted attempt to improve the company’s use of sustainable business practices. The agenda comprises 10 focal areas that correspond with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), with a central focus on the three fundamental pillars of Food, People, and Planet.
