Christmas is the season of sharing and giving. We feel an incomparable sense of joy when we make other people smile with small gestures that, in the end, we hope will create a powerful ripple effect. Giving comes naturally to us because that’s already part of our Filipino heritage. It’s not because of the Christmas carols that we listen to as early as September, nor how we lovingly fill our homes with festive lights and parols. We like to share because that’s who we are as Filipinos; we’re people who give passionately and sometimes more than what we have.
There are many ways to help out, and recently, we found it convenient to donate through Shopee. Aside from their reliability, you’ll be able to select from dozens of charities with diverse advocacies.
