Christmas shop and help in Caritas Expo

Missed the chance to shop and help in Caritas Manila’s social enterprise “Buy and Give Expo 3” last September? Come to the Activity Center of Ayala Glorietta Mall, Palm Drive, Makati City on Nov. 25 to 27 where “Buying is the new way of Giving.”

Caritas Expo launches Caritas Margins as the Social Brand to help end poverty. Caritas Margins provides skills and training to the urban poor communities and marginalized sector as well as honing them to become social entrepreneurs. It upholds each person’s dignity through the spirituality of work, the building of a culture of self-reliance and community empowerment, and inculcating the discipline of entrepreneurship and financial literacy.

This three- day ongoing expo will showcase various Caritas Margins products from different marginalized community partners, ranging from food, home and ladies accessories, personal care products, artwork from resident inmates of penal communities cared by Caritas Restorative Justice Ministry, and other gift items and decors.

Check out also Segunda Mana items during the three-day expo. Celebrities who have donated their personal items for this event are: Julius and Tintin Babao, Chris Tiu, Caritas Manila Youth Ambassador, and his teammates in Rain or Shine PBA team, celebrity couple Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes, Senators Nene and Koko Pimentel, Senators Bam Aquino, Loren Legarda, and Nancy Binay, Charo Santos-Concio, Cherie Gil, Richard Yap, Aiza Seguerra, and many more.

Get the chance to own your beloved celebrity’s personal items for a special cause!

Celebration of the Holy Mass will be held daily, plus special performing artists and Caritas Manila YSLEP scholars will be featured for entertainment.

Buy and Give Expo 3 not only supports the livelihood of micro-entrepreneurs, but helps send youth to college through Caritas Manila’s flagship program, Youth Servant Leadership and Education Program (YSLEP). To-date, Caritas Manila supports over 900 micro-entrepreneurs and more than 5,000 youth scholars nationwide.

Come to Caritas Manila’s Buy and Give Expo 3 where you can shop for Christmas presents at reasonable prices, and help those in need!
