In line with its commitment to make a difference in Philippine communities, global leader in outsourced omnichannel customer experience management Teleperformance (TP) partnered with Kythe Foundation for its Virtual Day Camp.
Kickstarting its 25th anniversary celebration in the Philippines, Teleperformance sponsored the celebration which aimed to provide psycho-social support for the children of Kythe, lessening the anxiety of these young pediatric patients who suffer from chronic illnesses.
The activity was done through Citizen of the World, Teleperformance’s charitable initiative that helps the world’s most vulnerable infants and children meet their basic survival needs and, ultimately, reach their individual potential. Kythe Foundation has been a partner organization of Citizen of the World since 2008.
“As we celebrate our 25th year in the Philippines, we look forward to working with long-standing partners like Kythe Foundation to create more programs like this Virtual Day Camp that will help provide not only for the physical, but the psychological and social needs of children, who are among the most affected by the ongoing pandemic,” said Jeffrey Johnson, Teleperformance Philippines Senior Vice President of Human Capital Resource Management.
“The Teleperformance Citizen of the World program has enabled Kythe to carry out the organization’s mission of providing opportunities for children with cancer to learn, play and grow even while confined in the hospital. TP Citizen of the World is one of the few corporate foundations who understand the value of providing psychosocial support to pediatric cancer patients,” shared Maria Fatima “Girlie” Garcia-Lorenzo, Co-founder and Executive Director of Kythe Foundation, Inc.
“Furthermore, TP Citizen of the World provides our patients medical and financial support. This year, there were 18 pediatric cancer patients who were given certificates of completion for their chemotherapy sessions. If in five years, these patients will not experience any relapse, they will be considered cancer survivors. Helping to save young lives…this is TP Citizen of the World’s positive impact on Kythe,” Garcia-Lorenzo added.
