Last November 21, 2025, in collaboration with the Community Livelihood and Extension Program (CLEP) of the City Government of Tacloban, a one-day activity was conducted at the Globalport Conference Office, providing training to the family members of GTTI and SAC employees.

The trainers delivered lectures on the basic foundations of hairdressing, including the proper use of hair tools, safe handling practices, and accurate measurement of hair chemicals used for coloring and treatment. They also demonstrated various hair cutting and coloring techniques and assisted participants during the hands-on activity.

This program aims to equip participants with skills that can help them start their own livelihood and create employment opportunities—an initiative that Globalport strongly supports as part of its commitment to social responsibility within the community.

Participants also received starter kits, which they can use as they begin their initial hairdressing ventures.

Last October 17, 2025, Globalport Tacloban, in partnership with the Municipality of Sta. Rita and MENRO successfully held a Mangrove Planting Activity at Brgy. Dampigan, Sta. Rita, Samar. 

A total of *3,800 mangrove propagules were planted by volunteers and partners from the Armed Forces of the Philippines, Philippine Coast Guard, Philippine Army, Philippine National Police, Bureau of Fire Protection, Leyte Normal University, Central Sto. Niño de Tacloban Eagles Club, Philippine Dental Association, Junior Chamber International of Sta. Rita, Sta. Rita Youth, EMET Port Builders, Strategic Alternative Corp., and GTTI volunteers. 

The event aimed at strengthening environmental protection and community resilience. These mangroves will serve as natural barriers against storm surges and flooding, while also serving as breeding grounds for fish, crustaceans, and shellfish which will help in providing alternative livelihoods for local communities.

Participants expressed their appreciation for Globalport’s effort and commitment to environmental sustainability. It served as both an inspiration and a call to action, highlighting the responsibility of everyone to protect and preserve our natural resources for future generations.

On October 12, 2025, the GMTI Team, in partnership with the PENRO-DENR Sorsogon and under the supervision of Mr. Futol (DENR Inspector), successfully conducted a Mangrove Tree Planting Activity in Matnog, Sorsogon. Barangay officials were also active participants in the initiative, which Mr. Futol witnessed.

As part of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, with the theme “Isang Puno, Isang Buhay,” a total of 5,000 mangrove propagules were planted. This initiative directly supports environmental protection, biodiversity conservation, and the rehabilitation of the local coastal areas.

Despite the challenging, muddy, and slippery terrain, the participants’ dedication, teamwork, and shared commitment ensured the activity’s success, powerfully showcasing a collective spirit of unity and responsibility toward the environment.

On September 20, 2025, Globalport Matnog actively participated in the International Coastal Clean-Up Drive held at Barangay Camcaman, Matnog. This vital environmental initiative saw a strong showing of commitment from various partner organizations, including the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office (MENRO), local Barangay Officials, the Philippine Ports Authority (PPA), and several other dedicated private groups. This collective mobilization served as a powerful, hands-on demonstration of our shared responsibility to the environment and the preservation of crucial marine resources.

The success of the clean-up effort went beyond simply clearing debris from the coastline; it significantly strengthened partnerships between government agencies and the private sector. By working shoulder-to-shoulder, the participants not only achieved a cleaner and healthier coastline but also effectively promoted community awareness. This collaborative event highlighted the importance of safeguarding the coastal environment, underscoring Globalport Matnog’s dedication to sustainable practices and inspiring a lasting commitment to environmental stewardship within the Matnog community.

On September 19, 2025, Globalport Ozamiz Terminal Inc. (GOTI) marked International Coastal Cleanup Day with an impactful event centered on the theme “”Clean Seas Against the Climate Crisis.”” Hosted by the DENR-CENRO, the activity drew a large number of participants, including GOTI employees and volunteers from the PPA-PMO MOZ, Philippine Coast Guard, Local Government of Baybay Triunfo, Misamis University, La Salle University, Bureau of Fire Protection, and the PNP Maritime Group. This collaborative effort underscored the shared commitment of both public and private sectors to combat marine pollution and its effects on the climate.

Beyond the coastal cleanup, the day’s initiatives showcased GOTI’s broader dedication to environmental and historical preservation. The combined efforts of the volunteers led to the collection of more than two small dump trucks of non-biodegradable waste from the coastline. In a separate but equally significant activity, GOTI joined the Philippine Coast Guard in cleaning and repainting the historic Fort Triunfo Lighthouse. These actions serve as a testament to Globalport’s commitment to promoting sustainable practices and preserving key community landmarks for future generations.
