foodpanda has donated ten percent of order values in 2022 to the Lao Friends Hospital under its “One Order One Smile” campaign.

Ms. Thanyalat Chaleunsouk, Managing Director for Delivery Hero, and her team, donated LAK 54 million to the Lao Friends Hospital for Children in Luang Prabang last week.

The donation was received by Mr. Thomas Brune, director of the Lao Friends Hospital for Children.

Mr. Thomas told the media that “We are happy and grateful to foodpanda and their customers nationwide for helping the children who are being treated in the Lao Friends Hospital. The money will be used to purchase medical equipment and supplies for the children and their families who will be treated in this hospital.”

The “One Order One Smile” campaign is considered to be the first project implemented to raise funds by having customers order food through the foodpanda app.  The campaign began in 2022, raising funds to help children who are being treated at the Lao Friends Hospital in Luang Prabang. The project started on 1 November and ended on 31 December 2022.

Ms. Thanyalat Chaleunsouk said: “I am very honored and happy to present this donation on behalf of foodpanda customers nationwide that helped us raise this fund to help the children who are being treated here. We believe that this support will help to provide the necessary medicine and medical equipment for the treatment of children at this hospital,”

foodpanda has been operating in Laos for three years, continuously supporting local communities, with the “One Order One Smile” campaign the latest example of the company’s commitment to CSR.
