PascualLab marks 80th anniversary by helping Filipinos in need

Pascual Laboratories Inc. is marking its 80th anniversary by partnering with Caritas Manila to extend health and wellness assistance to more Filipinos in need.

Pascual Laboratories Inc., or PascualLab, is commemorating its 80th anniversary by collaborating with Caritas Manila to provide enhanced health and wellness assistance to impoverished individuals in the Philippines. Originally established in 1946 by Leonora and Isosceles Pascual, the company began by focusing on Vitamin C needs and tuberculosis relief during the post-war period.

Since then, PascualLab has broadened its product range to include food supplements, cough remedies, and oral health items. Their corporate social responsibility initiative, Sowing to Empower, Educate, and Develop (S.E.E.D.), aligns with sustainable development goals, primarily targeting good health and well-being and fostering partnerships for development.

This partnership with Caritas Manila will utilize the latter's extensive network and logistical support to distribute essential health products, such as Poten-Cee, Lagundi Leaf, C-Lium Fibre, and OraCare Mouthrinse, to disadvantaged communities. In October, the organizations provided complimentary medical exams and cough relief to 90 residents of Asilo de San Vicente de Paul in Manila, where PascualLab employees volunteered and subsequently signed a memorandum of agreement to formalize their partnership.

To celebrate their milestone, PascualLab donated P16,558 worth of Ascof Lagundi Ponkan to children in need, courtesy of supporters from the media industry.
