“Malaki ang pinagbago ng kabuhayan namin, lalo na sa financial. Madami na din akong naipundar [dahil] kay Lalamove. Motor, appliances, gadgets, at konting ipon pa para mapaayos na namin yung bahay (Our life changed a lot especially when it came to our finances. I was able to fund a lot of things because of Lalamove. Motor, appliances, gadgets, and we’ll save a little more to fix our house),” shared Adrian Nery, who used to work as an online grocery delivery rider before shifting to Lalamove.

“Malaki po ‘yung tulong ni Lalamove. Nabayaran ko po halos lahat ng utang mula pa ng lockdown gawang nawalan ako ng trabaho. Napagpatuloy kong bayaran ang naipundar kong bahay at lupa through Pag-IBIG acquired asset na akala ko for closure na dahil ‘di ko na siya mabayaran nung ‘di pa ako Lalamove driver. Ngayon po, dito ko po kinukuha lahat ng pang-araw-araw na gastusin sa bahay, monthly bills, at needs ng mga bata (Lalamove has been a big help. I was able to pay almost all the loans I acquired during the lockdown when I lost my job. I was able to continue paying for the house and lot I purchased through Pag-IBIG acquired assets that I thought would be foreclosed because I couldn’t pay for it when I was not yet a Lalamove driver. Now, my income from Lalamove pays for our daily expenses, monthly bills, and the needs of my children),” said Willy.
