It’s 100 Days ‘til Christmas and it’s all about caring and giving at SM Supermalls

Memories of the festive Christmas season fill our hearts and minds as we usher in celebrating our 2nd “new normal” holiday season. Things may be a lot different, but SM Supermalls never fails to make it significant and meaningful by #SM100DaysOfCaring with a countdown that kicked off today.

The 100 Days of Caring aims to spread love and care for one another that extends towards the surrounding communities of our favorite SM Malls. The virtual event showcasing the pledges happened Thursday, Sept 16, 2021 over FB Live and WatchSM on YouTube.

Other Highlights from the 100 Days of Caring Virtual Event

Gift’ for your mental health. Aside from our physical health being at risk during a pandemic, our mental health is also affected due to the stress and anxiety these times bring. And since SM believes in the value of taking care of our mental health, Dr Gia Sison, MD DPCOM gave a ‘Call to Share’ talk during the virtual launch. Dr Gia Sison is a mental health advocate and co-founder of PH Leader Livestrong Foundation. Her talk centered on how to cope during this stressful time and still find hope in a better tomorrow.

 

100 voices that care. If there’s one thing that binds us all Filipinos together, it’s our passion and love for music. While we may not be allowed to have big gatherings this year, SM entertained the audience with the performance of the 3 Divas – Rahda, Frenchie and Bituin Escalante; later on joined by 100 artists, singers, and SM employees and stakeholders who came together to sing during the virtual launch on Sept 16.

 

We may be in the middle of a pandemic, times may be tough, and many of us may be physically apart, but let’s not forget what this season truly means. To view the event, go to WatchSM on YouTube or at SM Supermalls Facebook page.
