While the act of filling up the tank of their vehicles is pretty much routine for most car owners, Total Philippines Corporation wants to make it worthwhile, especially this holiday season.
Everyone who tops up their fuel tank at any Total station in Metro Manila and Bulacan from November 10 to December 10, 2016 can donate a toy for the children of the Project PEARLS, a Non-Government Organization (NGO) that aims to provide a better life for the children of underprivileged communities in Manila and Bulacan.
Founded in 2010, Project PEARLS provides educational grants and resources, feeding programs, and medical assistance to the communities of Helping Land in Tondo and Barangay Batia in Bulacan. They undertake medical missions, after-school program and even birthday programs that allow children of less fortunate folk to experience celebrating their special day—something that they would never have gotten to relish due to the vicious cycle of poverty. All these in the hope of giving these youngsters a better tomorrow.
Last year, the joint Total and Project PEARLS Toy Drive gathered some 3,500 toys. This year, they hope to collect at least 3,000 new toys that will be distributed to the kids at the NGO’s annual Chirstmas party.
So why not gas up at Total? You cold just make a lucky kid very happy this Christmas.
