Jollibee continues its tradition of making Christmas brighter with the magic of toys and books as its longest-running Maaga ang Pasko headed down South to spread cheer to children and families in Cebu City last December. Now on its 17th year, the project intensified its nationwide campaign as Jollibee employees, customers as well as Jolly Toy Scouts from partner schools, companies and families in this side of Visayas joined hands to touch the lives of even more children and families in need.
Students from Bagong Lipunan Elementary School in Mabolo, Cebu City and Carreta Elementary School in Carreta, Cebu City felt the warmth and cheer of Christmas as they opened bags of toys and books and enjoyed langhap-sarap Yumburgers during the school caravan. Jollibee was also present and entertained the kids with a dance number, eliciting wider smiles form the children.
Bagong Lipunan Elementary School Principal Sheila Pancho expressed the entire school’s gratitude to Jollibee’s goodwill. “It’s evident in the expression on the kids’ faces how happy they are with this early Christmas gift. This will surely be a memorable Christmas for all of them,” she shared.
This is also the first year that Jolly Toy Scout families in Cebu were called to participate thru the Maaga ang Pasko gift giving activity and share their blessings with less fortunate families.
“Jollibee is happy to be the bridge between these families. We want to start a Filipino Christmas tradition of giving and we hope this habit spreads to more families,” said Vice-President and Regional Business Unit Head for Visayas/Mindanao Beng Huyong during the Family Gift Giving Activity at Jollibee’s branch in Cebu A.S. Fortuna Branch.
Jollibee, through the DSWD, invited four families from the area — the Andales, Gomez, Antig, and Rafols families as the special beneficiaries of gifts from generous family donors and partners. Apart from toys and books for the kids in their household and Jollibee gift certificates , these families received various gifts ranging from basket of groceries, clothes and other special items from volunteer families like the Suplido family, Jollibee Family Values Awardee from Negros Occidental, as well as the Garcia family and Jollibee’s own District 1 families.
In addition, the beneficiary families were all provided with technical skills training scholarships courtesy of Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) Cebu.
Similar Maaga ang Pasko school caravans and the family gift giving activities were held in Manila, Naga, Pampanga and Cagayan de Oro.

Cosplay events have become yearly traditions in Cebu as elsewhere in the world. This year, cosplayers will come into prominence once again in one day as they will invade the area of one of the important business districts in Cebu and turn it into Harajuku district, filled with Japanese-inspired fashion designers and enthusiasts. The event will be like bringing a portion of Japan into an area crowded by anime fans and Cosplay hobbyists in their anime-inspired outfits.
CEDf-IT Cosplay HD is among the series of events lined up in celebration of the 10th year anniversary of Cebu Educational Development for Informational Technology (CEDf-IT). This event is in partnership with Ayala Center Cebu and Cebu Holdings, Inc. in cooperation with iLuvCebu.com. This will be on October 29, 2011 from 5PM-12MN.
Anime enthusiasts, hobbyists and even families can watch the cosplayers and judge their fashion senses at the Linear Park of Cebu Business Park. That area is between Cebu Holdings Center across Marriott and City Sports Club near Lexmark Tower.
Turning that area of CBP into Harajuku District is like watching a carnival of colorful personalities. Cosplayers personify their favorite anime characters and make them alive with eccentric outfits and sometimes ultra-outrageous costumes.
For spectators of CEDf-IT Cosplay HD, bring your cameras and have plethora of chances to take images of the cosplayers in their outlandish fashion. You may be surprised to see among your friends or relatives in their bizaare costumes ever.
Cosplaying is a display of art out from the passion of personifying the fave anime characters. It is not just about fashion, it is also about expression of emotions and role-playing.
The Linear Park of Cebu Business Park will transform into a big stage for cosplayers playing out the roles of their desired animes.
About Harajuku District
Harajuku District is famed in Tokyo, Japan because of the street fashion sense among the youths in their eccentric attires . It is regarded as the fashion capital of the world, attributing largely to the capital of Japan, which is known for its fashion sensibilities and world-class designers.
Cebu Bloggers Society, Inc. is recognized as one of the media partners of the CEDf-IT Cosplay HD.
One of the much-loved makers of sweet-glazed doughnuts, Krispy Kreme, had its media launch today with the mediamen in Cebu, in print and television. And the bloggers were also invited in the event. The author and editor of cebubloggers.com, Bjorn Bernales, Sinjin Pineda, the Event Chairman and Cebu Bloggers Society president, Kevin Ray Chua were there to witness the cozy, doughnuts-filled outlet( of course, inside the patisserie display), which is the first in Cebu.
Two more outlets will be opened in the near future, at AsiaTown IT Park and at SM Cinema. But before those two will be serving local patrons in Cebu, the Ayala Center outlet of Krispy Kreme is the center of attention by the media and I’m sure it will be tomorrow for the local patrons.
Grand opening day for 1st Krispy Kreme branch in Cebu will be tomorrow October 22, 2011. For doughnuts lovers, be sure you are in the first in line as Krisply Kreme has a surprise for the 1st patron during its grand opening.
Do you think a “month’s supply of Krispy Kreme doughnuts” does not sound AWESOME?’
I don’t know about you but I’m looking forward to it. And it is not only the 1st in line will receive the treats from Krispy Kreme. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th patrons will bring some things from Krispy Kreme as special giveaways.
Want to find out?
How about you surprise yourself by being among the first 4 in the queue before the glass door opens at Cebu’s 1st Krispy Kreme outlet.
