CW Home Depot, one of the country’s leading building, finishing, and furnishing stores, brought smiles to the faces of children at Kanlungan sa Pasig with a special toy drive held on January 10, 2025.
In partnership with Hot Wheels Philippines, CW Home Depot donated toys to children aged 0-13 years old from Kanlungan sa Pasig. Nearly 50 children from the facility participated in the event, receiving toys that brightened their day.
Kanlungan sa Pasig serves as a home for individuals in crisis, providing a safe space for healing and recovery for children in conflict with the law (CICL), children at risk, teen mothers, victims of violence against women and children (VAWC), victims of violence against the LGBTQIA community, and abandoned elderly individuals.
“In 2023, we renovated the comfort rooms at Kanlungan sa Pasig in celebration of our 20th Anniversary, and now we return to bring joy to these children by providing them with toys that I believe they truly need. For them, these toys are not just playthings but symbols of happiness and love. I hope these gifts will make them feel as happy, loved, and supported as they have made my own children feel,” said Ms. Ana Flores-Bermudez, CW Home Depot’s Vice President of Marketing and Communications.
CW Home Depot is committed to help its nearby communities as a way of sharing the blessings to other people especially to the less fortunate ones. “I am so happy to be part of this heartwarming activity. It’s truly touching to see the smiles on their faces, and I hope we have made them feel loved in our own little way,” said Mr. Alvin A. Uy, CW Home Depot’s Vice President of Business and Skills Development. “I would also like to express my gratitude to the people who helped us organize this event – without your support, this wouldn’t have been possible. A special thank you to the selfless social service workers at Kanlungan sa Pasig and our partner Hot Wheels Philippines for making this purposeful event a success”, he added.
Hot Wheels, an iconic American media franchise and brand of scale model cars created by Mattel, has partnered with CW Home Depot for this charitable initiative.
