Ford Gift-Giving Activity in GK Bulacan

• Ford Philippines Spreads Christmas Cheer in Bulacan

In time for the upcoming holiday season, Ford Philippines spread Christmas cheer to over 200 kids in Bulacan as part of its continuous efforts to make a difference in the communities under its Operation Better World program.

Ford brought Christmas gifts onboard its top-selling nameplates – the new EcoSport, new Ranger and Ford Everest, and spent a day with kids from various Gawad Kalinga (GK) villages in Bulacan playing Filipino games and singing and dancing to Christmas music. The gift-giving activity was participated by Ford employees, motoring journalists, and officers and administrators of Ford Everest Club Philippines (FECP).

“Christmas has always been a very special occasion for Filipinos, and at Ford, we always make time to spread the Christmas cheer especially to kids who have been eagerly awaiting for this season. It has been a great experience for everyone and we look forward to reaching out to more kids and more GK villages in the years to come,” said Josie Gonzalez, AVP for Government and Corporate Affairs, Ford Philippines.

“This year, we extended an invitation to FECP to participate in our annual Christmas gift-giving activity. FECP has been leading a lot of corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives as part of their year-long projects, using their own Ford Everest vehicles to transport and move goods and donations and taking advantage of the Everest’s storage capabilities,” adds EJ Francisco, AVP for Communications, Ford Philippines.

Ford Everest Club Philippines: Beyond just a car club

FECP is a growing community of Ford Everest (Generation 1 to current) owners and enthusiasts, with the membership officially built on Facebook. FECP is dedicated and committed to providing the latest news and updates on the Ford Everest car line, expert opinions, troubleshooting assistance and pieces of advice for its members.

“Being a part of FECP means more than just being in a club. It’s like being in a family where camaraderie is a priority. I have chosen the Everest as my go-to vehicle because it’s a safe and reliable SUV. I feel very safe driving it and I can truly say it gives me more than what I paid for,” said Courtney Camposano, FECP Administrator.

“It was a nice and humbling experience to join Ford’s yearly gift-giving program to bring smiles to the faces of Gawad Kalinga kids. Seeing those genuine smiles in all of them makes our hearts full. We’re all looking forward to join Ford Philippines’ advocacy programs in the future as they’re all strongly aligned with FECP’s advocacy initiative which is ‘paying-it-forward’,” said Edmarl Tecson, FECP President.

The Ford Everest has set the standard for mid-sized SUVs in the country with its best-insegment 800mm water wading capability, robust design and exteriors, smart technologies and safety features, and outstanding fuel efficiency.
