Ever Mall supports QC’s drive to achieve herd immunity

With the number of COVID-19 cases on the rise, the government needs all the help from the private sector to ensure that the best protection—vaccination— will reach the majority as soon as possible.

One of the staunch supporters of this vaccination drive is Ever Mall with its “I Love My Jab” CSR campaign, which had 100 percent of its employees and majority of its merchants vaccinated.

“We are optimistic that we can achieve herd immunity at the soonest time as we fight this virus together with the Quezon City local government,” said Chie Arao Santos, head of corporate marketing of Ever Mall. “At Ever, we did not only provide a convenient venue for vaccination to QC residents, we are all fully vaccinated and ready to serve everyone even better.”

Since June, the operations and marketing departments of Ever Mall have been closely coordinating with QC Protektodo. The smooth implementation of the vaccination program is headed by Ronelo Alvarez, mall manager of Ever Commonwealth, and Thea Santayana, assistant mall marketing manager.

“We have ensured and prioritized the safety and convenience of our customers on their vaccination day,” said Alvarez. “We have placed a proper and orderly system, right at the start when the customer enters the mall, up to the moment that he or she takes the jab.”

More vaccination events are planned to help expedite the administration of COVID-19 vaccines to help curb the spread of the virus and achieve herd immunity. The QC Government, led by Mayor Joy Belmonte and coordinated through Margarita Santos, BPLD Head, supplied the vaccines and supervised the campaign.

“We have assisted the QC LGU in disseminating the information on schedules and latest advisories through our networks and via social media. We also have encouraged our merchants to do promotions on anything vaccine-related so more people would take the jab,” said Santayana. “The idea behind the ‘I Love My Jab’ is making our economic front-liners safe and ensuring that our merchants have their vaccines for their protection as they go to work and serve customers everyday.”

The #EVERSafeShopping at Ever Mall is assured by the QC Government-issued “Safety Seal” certificate. The Safety Seal serves as a “badge of honor” of business establishments informing the public that they are compliant with the minimum health and safety protocols required by the IATF.

“With more jabs on the arms of citizens, there is more hope that we could transition out of this phase of the pandemic. We’re all in this together, and Ever Mall is here to be a responsible member of the community and do our best to help our nation rise once again,” Santos added.
