To promote the good health and well-being of mothers and their unborn child through safe pregnancy and delivery, the SM Cares Program on Women and Breastfeeding Mothers, hosted an event titled “Mama’s Lullaby, A Musical Event for Expecting Mothers”. This is in support of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal on good health and well-being.
Held at the Event Center in SM Megamall, the event featured discussions with medical experts wherein attendees picked up useful tips on a safe and healthy pregnancy.
“Looking after yourself during pregnancy is very important, which is why we at SM Cares remain committed to providing awareness to all women and future mothers about proper ways on how to care for both you and your baby,” said Bernadette Velasco, SM Cares Program Director for Women and Breastfeeding Mothers.
Guest speaker Dr. Bianca Katrina Villanueva of the Philippine Obstetrical and Gynecological Society, the premier organization of Obstetrician-Gynecologists, discussed the stages of pregnancy and shared tips for better intellectual and emotional development of the baby. Meanwhile, Medical Nutrition Physician Dr. Mariana Sioson, talked about breastfeeding and food that will boost nutrition for both mother and baby.
The highlight of the event was a symphony performance of String Fusion, which serenaded the mommies and their babies, as it is believed that music can have a potential positive impact on the baby’s mental and emotional development.
SM Cares is the Corporate Social Responsibility arm of SM Prime Holdings, Inc. Its advocacies include Environment Sustainability, Programs on Persons with Disabilities, Children and Youth, Women and Breastfeeding Mothers, Senior Citizens, and Overseas Filipino Workers (SM Global Pinoy).

LBC 2019 Shippers’ Night
With the theme “Disco Inferno”, the annual gathering was held at 12 Monkeys Pub at El Pueblo in Ortigas. DJ Chacha of MOR 101.9 FM hosted the event with the Spirit of 67 and DJ Marrion providing the live music.

Among the companies represented during the celebration were:
LBC Business Solutions hosts the annual Shippers’ Night to give thanks to their clients who have shown unwavering support for their various services- from logistics, cold chain solutions, NVOCC, specialized logistics, warehousing, remittance, and printing.
According to VP For Corporate Sales Jerome Santos: “The Shippers’ Night is not just a platform to celebrate our successful collaborations but a platform for us to look into the future with the common goal to further our respective businesses with more ease and efficiency”.
My personal thoughts
When I read “shippers’ night”, geek that I am, I thought they meant relationSHIP instead of the traditional definition of ship meaning to send. For a moment I forgot that this had to have something to do with LBC which is a delivery company. Lol!
I’ve used LBC to send packages, pick up packages, pay bills, pick up remittances … and to my own personal assessment, they are currently the best in the biz. You really can’t go wrong with LBC.
The platform works by having the jobseekers download the FastJobs App on their mobiles. After registering, they can immediately start submitting their job applications.
