Bata donates 1800 pairs of shoes to PGH frontliners through SM Foundation

Bata, a world-renowned shoe brand with over 6,000 retail stores across the globe, partnered anew with SM Foundation (SMFI) in donating 1,800 pairs of shoes for the front -liners of the Philippine General Hospital. This is part of Bata's Global 1 Million Pairs donation project.

“Due to long and often times back-to-back work shifts, a number of our health workers are experiencing foot and back pain,” says SM Foundation Executive Director Debbie Sy. “The need to constantly disinfect their shoes also results in faster wearing out of their footwear. With this, SMFI and Bata wanted to provide our health workers with quality footwear to address this need and provide them with comfortable footwear and protection while at work and doing their rounds.”

“Bata Philippines donated these shoes as our way of saying thank you to our front-liners for the help that they have extended to the country during the COVID-19 pandemic,” says Bata Philippines General Manager Arlyn Guanlao. UP PGH Director Dr. Gerardo Legaspi expressed his gratitude to SM Foundation and Bata, “I'd like to thank SM Foundation for being ever supportive of our COVID-19 fight here in PGH. You have covered the whole spectrum of our needs from ventilators and now sneakers. Thank you to Bata shoes for having shared their different kinds of sneakers which I'm sure would go a long way into making our front-liners feel appreciated and comfortable when they work.”

Since the onset of the outbreak, Bata through its “Bata Heroes” initiative has been working with its long-standing foundations, charitable partners, government agencies, and other organization to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the years, SMFI and Bata have been collaborating on social good projects. In 2018, they teamed up to construct a new school building for Telabastagan

Integrated School in San Fernando, Pampanga. More recently, in March 2020 for the distribution of 400 pairs of shoes for the students of Looc Elementary School in Nasugbu, Batangas.

Amiya Raya's resort living in the new normal

With everything that is happening around us, your home is your sanctuary. It is where you feel most safe and relaxed. Having a haven where you feel free and can do many things, improves your overall quality of life, giving you space to spend time alone or with the people you love.

Owning land can be expensive, and there is a need for well-built and thoughtfully designed quality living spaces that people could enjoy. This is what the people behind Amiya Raya had in mind when they conceptualized the development east of Quezon City. In Hindu-Sanskrit, Amiya Raya means “a view that delights the senses, a description that captures the essence of the development.

 

“Having no choice but to stay home during the 2-month long community quarantine has made many recognize the importance of having ample spaces to move around,” Arlene Jacosalem, AVP - Marketing and Business Development shares.

“Another is that the current pandemic showed us the importance of having a safe retreat for our family: one with big open spaces to make physical distancing possible, a breathable environment to move around in, and scenic views that are ideal, both for working from home and for relaxation.”

Your Sanctuary In The East
The exclusive, an Asian-themed, residential enclave boasts of a stunning 270-degree view of the city, Laguna de Bay, and the Rizal mountain ranges. On February 2020, Amiya Raya launched Phase 4 of its development, which has a limited number of residential lots and cuts ranging from 250 to 755 square meters. With less than 50% remaining in inventory, this phase offers a much more exclusive neighborhood with lots having some of the highest peaks and best views in the said development.

The homes at Amiya Raya allow its residents to to live with nature, a delightful experience for the soul and the senses. Its designs are inspired by various Asian architectural concepts – modern, minimalist and Zen. It boasts of spit-level structures that enhances the use of ground space and opens interesting visual perspectives around the living area. Open your windows and take a view over Manila from the highlands of San Mateo, Rizal.

These structures are also known for their classic, cleanliness, simple yet luxurious appointments, generous open living areas, efficient use of space, and sense of natural tropical style. In the heart of the house design intent, is to blend in, and not obstruct nature.

 

A Balance of City and Resort Living
Amiya Raya is currently working on the completion of its 3,100-square meter clubhouse and sports facility, an 11-hectare nature park, a village center, and a retail area. Situated 240 meters above sea-level and enveloped by its natural environs, it offers resort-like living that is only a 15-minute drive from the city. It is located in San Mateo, Rizal, which makes it close to places of interests such as schools, churches, malls, and government offices.

The stability of the real estate industry makes owning property a sound and reasonable investment. Apart from that you will have your very own place where you can completely be yourself and just be. Check out the two units available:
