HONG KONG, Feb. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — At the end of 2021, Typhoon Odette swept across the Philippines, and the Bohol Province, one of the country’s famous tourist destinations, declared a disaster. On January 22, 2022, ATFX’s corporate social responsibility team, ATFX Cares and SmarTrade, together with local government authorities, distributed relief supplies to Bien Unido, a city in the Bohol Province, to aid the communities still suffering from lack of electricity and lack of purified drinking water in the typhoon’s aftermath.
When ATFX learned that a severe typhoon had hit Bohol and that there was a massive demand for relief supplies, ATFX Cares and SmarTrade immediately took action to quickly buy the daily necessities and deliver them to the disaster area. They distributed 200 food pails containing a blanket, rice, and canned goods, 100 food bags, 250 water jugs and bottled water, and 150 hygiene kits.
After completing the disaster relief project in Bohol, the ATFX team proceeded to a housing community for the disabled and the blind in Panglao. It gave out 30 sets of additional supplies to help the community recover from the disaster.
The ATFX team said that it would continue helping in the reconstruction and development of Bohol and other parts of the Philippines. In the meantime, ATFX’s public welfare and philanthropic activities will never end. We hope to establish partnerships with more charitable organizations and groups worldwide, carrying out different projects jointly and taking practical actions to help people in need live a better life.

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
When you support The Indian Sun, you support:
• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers
We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.
