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. Kythe kids
were partnered with TP volunteers and enjoyed a fun program which included animal
yoga exercises and storytelling, a safari hunt, trivia games, and even a
Talentadong Kythe Kids showcase and Costume Contest.
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.
“At Teleperformance, we truly
believe in the importance of giving back and in providing our employees with
the avenues to make an impact in communities. 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,” Director added.
Aside from organizing day
camps and theme parties, Citizen of the World also provides monthly
allowances for the Kythe Child Life Coordinators, who provide psychosocial
support to children with cancer and other chronic illness and their families.
TP’s Citizen
of the World
has also provided medical assistance through the Kythe Adopt-a-Patient Program,
which provides funds for necessary medical procedures, medicines, laboratory
and other expenses with the hope of providing the child-patient a continuing healing
process. In 2020, Citizen of the World has been able to help over 2,000
children, provided over 2,000 Child Life Services and activities over the past
13 years, and providing assistance amounting to almost PHP 3 million in the
past 3 years.
