Phnom
Penh - Manulife Cambodia is proud to announce its support via a major
financial donation to the Children Hospital Kantha Bopha for its mission
and hospitalization to save the lives of thousands of children every
month.
The
company raised the funds through an auction among 300 Manulife
employees and insurance advisors at the annual Manulife ASEAN Managers'
Seminar (AMS) and ASEAN Achievers' Summit (AAS) hosted by Manulife
Cambodia in Siem Reap during September 7--10, 2012, with Manulife
Cambodia match-funding the total bids. Robert Elliott, Chief Executive
Officer for Manulife Cambodia, visited the hospital and presented the
cheque to Dr. Beat Richner, founder of the Kantha Bopha Hospital.
One
million children have been saved and ten million treated during the 20
years work at Kantha Bopha Hospital. "Manulife is delighted to be able
to make its contribution to support Kantha Bopha, which does such
important and caring work for Cambodian families." Said Mr. Elliott
during the visit to the hospital.
The
support to Kantha Bopha Hospital underscores Manulife Cambodia's
commitment to help to create a better future for Cambodia. This
commitment is reflected into Manulife's products and services, designed
to help Cambodians secure their financial future, as well as its efforts
to help build stronger, more resilient communities.
