Additionally, the social good arm of SM also donated Php5 million to help address
the needs of earthquake victims.

The aid comes after a 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit southeast Türkiye and
northwest Syria. The disaster was followed by a magnitude 6.3 earthquake, hitting
southern Turkiye, which led to additional casualties and damages.
