In addition to the monetary pledge, BMW Asia and Asian Carmakers Corporation will be deploying a relief convoy consisting of ten BMW X-model Sports Activity Vehicles (mixture of BMW X1, X3 and X5) for the transport of medical and relief supplies around Metro Manila.

“Apart from monetary donation, we felt that more could be done for the victims. A convoy fleet carrying medical and relief supplies would be one of the most direct way of delivering help to the victims at this point in time,” said Mr. Neil Fiorentinos, Managing Director of BMW Group Asia.

Funds used to purchase the medical and relief supplies were diverted from the launch budget originally planned for the launch of Autoallee, a new BMW showroom in EDSA, Quezon City.
