BERKLEY/FAMILY FIRST'S UNIQUE TRADITION

BERKLEY/FAMILY FIRST'S UNIQUE TRADITION. Berkley International Philippines, Inc. and wholly-owned subsidiary, Family First, Inc. (FFI), recently turned over boxes of vitamins, medicines, soaps, toothpaste and toothbrushes to the GMA Foundation, Inc. The donations came from the employees themselves and have, for the second year in a row now, served as their entrance tickets to their company's Annual Christmas Party. It is a unique tradition adopted to give employees a chance to share their blessings with the less fortunate. Berkley and Family First collaborated with GMA in order to extend help to children of tribal communities in the North who are sometimes forgotten despite the abundance of fund-raising activities for kids.

Berkley is a pre-need company whose products in the Philippines are exclusively distributed by Family First.
