On 18 October 2024, the MWSS Regulatory Office (RO) took part in the launch of Maynilad Water Services, Inc.‘s WASH-Up—a health and wellness campaign aimed at building healthy and sustainable communities through the promotion of proper health and hygiene practices.
The launch featured Maynilad’s mobile shower facility, which will primarily serve customers in the West Concession Area. This facility can also be deployed to disaster-stricken areas within and outside Metro Manila as part of Maynilad’s Mission Ginhawa.
In addition to witnessing the launch, attendees from Caloocan received free medical check-ups and attended an educational talk on the importance of proper hygiene.
In his message of support, MWSS RO Chief Regulator Patrick Lester N. Ty commended Maynilad for its Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) initiatives, recognizing their particular importance for women and girls, who are often disproportionately affected by inadequate hygiene facilities. He also encouraged attendees to conserve water, emphasizing its critical role in safeguarding public health.
