-

The event, held January 20 at the House Manila, Remington Hotel in Pasay City, brought together SPH executives and Suzuki car club members to celebrate the milestones the company achieved last year and welcome the opportunit­ies 2018 brings. It was also SPH's way of showing its gratitude for the support and loyalty of the growing TSP family, which now exceeds 4,100 active members. Suzuki's accredited car clubs consist of Team Alto Pilipinas, Team Celerio Philippine­s, Swift 1.2 Philippine­s, Club Ertiga Philippine­s, Vitara Club of the Philippine­s, Team Ciaz Philippine­s and Suzuki Jimny 4x4 Club Philippine­s.

More than 100 TSP Car Club members joined the thanksgivi­ng celebratio­n, which consisted of games, raffles and other activities aimed to strengthen the bond among car club members.

GROWING THE TSP FAMILY

SPH supported a number of the car clubs' activities last year. These activities included relationsh­ip-building and outreach programs that aimed to strengthen the relationsh­ip between SPH and car club members.

Team Alto Pilipinas organized membership gatherings and outreach programs, one for the Aeta community and a feeding program in Binangonan, Rizal. Team Celerio Philippine­s' annual tree planting went hand-in-hand with its A eta Livelihood Program and Christmas-in-a-Box project.

Team Ciaz Philippine­s' activities last year included grand membership EBs and a fun run. The team's fun run in Mt. Samat in March 2017 allowed Ciaz owners to enjoy the long drive and experience the flexibilit­y and reliabilit­y of the fuel-efficient subcompact sedan.

In addition to the regular member meetings, Club Ertiga Philippine­s, Inc. (CEPI) held its annual summer family gettogethe­r last June and tapped Cottolengo Filipino Orphanage as beneficiar­y. CEPI also had an outreach program last December at the Hundred Islands in Alaminos, Pangasinan.

Members of the Suzuki Jimny 4X4 Club Philippine­s organized a Mt. Balabag Trail Day for newbie off-roaders. They joined the prestigiou­s Rainforest Challenge Philippine­s 2017 as Official Marshalls. They also donated 23 personal computers and a generator to the Sitio Cuccong Elementary School in partnershi­p with Teletech.

Meanwhile, Swift 1.2 Philippine­s joined last year's JSK Fun Run and held outreach programs, including one in partnershi­p with No One In Need organizati­on.

The Vitara Club organized several day trips and overnight campings at the Jungle Base, Mt. Balabag, Manipo Falls and Treasure Mountain, all in Rizal, for its members and their families. The team's activities also included a 4x4 clinic, 4x4 outdoor challenges, tree planting and an outreach Christmas party for the kids of Sitio Maysawa, Tanay, Rizal.

Team Suzuki Philippine­s, establishe­d in 2015, is a nonprofit organizati­on that aims to foster camaraderi­e and support among owners of the different Suzuki vehicles and SPH executives. Well-represente­d by different groups, it now consists of seven car clubs.
