For the fifth year in a row, MGM donated MOP300,000 to the Macau Holy House of Mercy Welfare Shop project, funding the distribution of food hampers to more than 350 local low-income households.
According to a statement released by MGM, its senior executives led a team of over 40 volunteers to help distribute food hampers and MGM’s custom- made eco-friendly handcarts to the families.
Grant Bowie, CEO and executive director of MGM China Holdings Limited, presented a donation check of MOP300,000 to António José de Freitas, president of the Board of Trustees on behalf of the Holy House of Mercy.
More than 1,600 low-income families have received MGM’s food hampers and handcarts under the Welfare Shop project since its launch in 2013.
During the distribution of food hampers, the volunteers divided into six groups, and each of them took up specific parts in helping to pack basic food and daily necessities, including rice, noodles, canned food, and cooking oil into MGM’s tailor-made handcarts and distributed them to the families.
