Cebuana Lhuillier Bank is proud to announce its partnership with the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) in Central Luzon to facilitate fund disbursements for the Sustainable Livelihood Program (SLP). Leveraging Cebuana Lhuillier’s extensive branch network, this collaboration makes financial resources more accessible to communities, empowering individuals to improve their livelihoods and strengthen local economies. By bringing essential banking services closer to Filipinos through Cebuana Lhuillier’s trusted platform, the bank reaffirms its commitment to financial inclusion and community upliftment.
With over 3,500 Cebuana Lhuillier branches across the Philippines and more than 400 branches in Central Luzon, the bank is well-positioned to effectively support DSWD’s initiatives. This extensive network means that there is a Cebuana Lhuillier branch in almost every town, making it convenient for beneficiaries to access their funds quickly and easily. The partnership with DSWD not only enhances Cebuana Lhuillier’s role in financial inclusion but also reinforces its commitment to community development. As beneficiaries receive assistance from DSWD, by opening a Micro Savings account, they can easily withdraw their funds at any Cebuana Lhuillier, ensuring that support reaches those in need without unnecessary delays. As part of the ongoing efforts to promote the Sustainable Livelihood Program, Cebuana Lhuillier already launched SLP disbursements specifically in Region 2B (Central Luzon). This initiative will provide local beneficiaries with timely access to financial aid, enabling them to invest in their livelihoods, start small businesses, or pursue other opportunities that will enhance their quality of life.
Cebuana Lhuillier President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Cebuana Lhuillier Bank Vice Chairman Jean Henri Lhuillier expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “We are honored to collaborate with DSWD in supporting the Sustainable Livelihood Program. This initiative not only strengthens our commitment to financial inclusion but also empowers individuals to uplift their lives. We believe that access to financial resources is a key driver of change in our communities.” Cebuana Lhuillier Bank President Dennis Valdez added, “Our partnership with DSWD reinforces our mission to be a reliable ally for every Filipino. By facilitating the Sustainable Livelihood Program disbursements, we are not just providing financial assistance; we are investing in the potential of our fellow citizens to create lasting change in their lives.” Cebuana Lhuillier Bank’s partnership with the DSWD for the Sustainable Livelihood Program disbursements represents a significant step toward enhancing financial access and promoting economic stability for Filipino families. With a robust network and a commitment to community development, Cebuana Lhuillier is dedicated to supporting the nation’s recovery and empowering individuals to build a better future. For those eligible for DSWD assistance, now is the time to open a Micro Savings account at Cebuana Lhuillier and experience the ease of accessing your benefits.
