In 2020, Pfizer and Pfizer Foundation announced their commitment to donate $40M for worldwide relief efforts for COVID-19 through international non-government organizations (NGOs) and partners. Among those chosen beneficiary organizations was the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) for its efforts in relief operations and for taking the lead in performing more than one million RT-PCR tests in the Philippines. Last January, Pfizer Philippines formally turned over a $100,000 (P5 million) grant to PRC to support its COVID-19 relief efforts and projects. The virtual turnover event (in photo) was attended by Pfizer Country Manager Andreas Riedel, Pfizer Public Affairs Director Noel Borlongan, PRC Chairman and CEO Senator Richard Gordon, PRC Secretary General Elizabeth Zavalla, PRC Biomolecular Laboratories head Dr. Paulyn Ubial, and American Red Cross Country Representative Shir Shah Ayobi.
