Since we are already on a quarantine shopping spree, why not channel that (spending) energy to help others who are in need during this pandemic?
Last week, we launched Nolisoli Selections, an Instagram auction page featuring donations by local brands, designers, businesses and creatives that will go under the virtual hammer for the benefit of tricycle drivers in Makati and Quezon City.
[READ: Load up your carts. We’re auctioning items from Rajo Laurel, Ito Kish and more at Nolisoli Selections]As you may know, they are one of the most impacted communities during this time with limited mobility and restricted operations due to the quarantine. So we made it our mission to raise funds for them with help from our generous donors and, of course, you, the bidders! Thank you so much!
As of July 29, proceeds from our first drop “Kasual” have reached over P100,000, all of which will go—yes, 100 percent—to the tricycle drivers from Brgy. South Triangle in Quezon City and Brgys. Tejeros, La Paz and Singkamas in Makati.
Now, if you missed this first selection or unfortunately lost out to another (anonymous) bidder (like I did), well, we are happy to tell you, “wait, there’s more!”
No, really, when we say more, we mean more.
There are more chances of winning the lot you are eyeing as there will be almost 30 participating brands for our second collection called “Pistang Lokal” on Friday, July 31.
