THE Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company (Metrobank), through its Branch Banking Sector (BBS), stepped up its employee volunteerism program, as it partnered with its corporate social responsibility arm, Metrobank Foundation Inc. (MBFI), in organizing a series of feeding activities to benefit underprivileged individuals in the City of Manila.

Bannered under its social response program 'Helping Hands,' more than 200 employees from different Metrobank branches in Metro Manila volunteered to reach out to close to 3,500 individuals, mostly street dwellers, through the distribution of hot meals as well as loot bags containing grocery items, toiletries, candies, and biscuits.
