Watsons volunteer moms bring their compassionate hearts, healing hands to communities

It takes a village to mount a Watsons 'Alagang Pangkalusugan' medical mission. There are volunteer doctors, nurses, and other medical personnel. Watsons also invites supplier partners to donate medicines and medical supplies and witness the work being done in the communities. Then there are the Watsons employee volunteers who use their days off to give back instead of resting and spending time with their families.

A number of these Watsons volunteers are mothers. Patience and leadership skills are traits that many good volunteers have and if there is one person who has these traits and more, it's a mother.

Watsons employees and mom volunteers gather at the Alagang Pangkalusugan Medical Mission in Camarines Sur.
