Bags of Hope Campaign : Make your purchase meaningful for World Vision Kids

Robinsons Supermarket, Unilever Philippines and World Vision united together and launched the “Bags of Hope” campaign – which aims to help World Vision Kids with their education and their future.


Packing hope in a bag is possible with the help of Unilever Philippines, Robinsons Supermarket and World Vision through Lady’s Choice’ Bags of Hope.

With what began as a child sponsorship endeavor in Malabon in 2007, blossomed into a relentless commitment for continued and growing support for children in more communities. It inspired the launch of “Lunch Box of Hope,” and eventually gave rise to the “Bags of Hope” we know today.

Lady’s Choice Bags of Hope is mounted each year together with Robinsons Supermarket to help in the education of World Vision kids. In the early days of the campaign, P5 is donated to World Vision for every Bags of Hope pack sold. Recognizing the growing needs of kids and the yearning to extend greater assistance for their studies, Unilever donates a set a school supplies for each Bags of Hope pack sold on top of the free school bag included in each pack.


On its 9th year, Bags of Hope ensured to help more kids in their education. Bags of Hope was able to donate Php 1.1 Million pesos worth of school supplies that benefited 15,000 students from World Vision-assisted communities. Through this support, beneficiaries are ensured they go to school equipped with what they need to learn.

Lady’s Choice not only makes delightful sandwiches and salads for the family, it is also packed with renewed hope towards a better, brighter future for children.



To help World Vision Kids with their education, Robinsons Supermarket, Unilever Philippines and World Vision unite together and launched the “Bags of Hope” campaign.

One may be a committed donor through buying the Bags of Hope pack. One can choose from purchasing 470ml Lady’s Choice Mayonnaise, Ham or Bacon spreads. Purchase will automatically entitle one to receive a “collectible school bag” which comes in four designs while concurrently giving out school supplies as donations for World Vision Kids to support their education.

Let us bring back the children to school and share the Bags of Hope to give a child a chance in life.

Just want to share this video from World Vision:

Daisy is one of the millions of mothers and women who bravely face the loss caused by typhoon Haiyan. Her family endures the rain and cold for several days before World Vision came with tarpaulin, they now used as temporary roof and wall of their damaged house.

She prays they will be able to rebuild their home so the young kids will be safe. 

In celebration of the International Women's Day, we recognize Daisy's strength, courage and love for her children and family. We honor all the women who continue to fight the storms of life.

Be blessed always and Happy Women's Day!

Stars make future brighter for children through World Vision ‘ Celebrities for Children : Race for Hope’

"Our vision for every child, life in all its fullness. Our prayer for every heart, the will to make it so."  -  World Vision

As part of its commitment to uplift the lives of poor children, World Vision launched its ‘Celebrities for Children: The Race for Hope’ campaign last April. The campaign aims to find sponsors for at least 1,000 poor children in the country through the help of World Vision celebrity child sponsors.

True to its vision of ‘life in all its fullness” for every Filipino child, with the help of celebrity challengers, World Vision culminates the campaign with a thanksgiving event at the Annabel’s Restaurant in Tomas Morato, Quezon City last October 29, 2013.
During the campaign, the celebrities had to “race” to get the most sign ups through referring their friends and families to be child sponsors. By the end of the campaign in September, the celebrities have collectively referred sponsors for 189 children.

The participating World Vision celebrities prove that they are more than just pretty faces – they have the heart to help. TV host Christine Bersola-Babao, entrepreneur Cristalle Belo Henares, movie and TV actress Anne Curtis and beauty queen Miriam Quiambao are the celebrities who responded to the call and accepted the challenge.
Cristalle Belo Henares
A well known entrepreneur-philanthropist, Cristalle Belo Henares said that it had been her dream to help send kids to school. Her campaign slogan “300 at 30”, signifying her mission to find sponsors for 300 kids for her 30th year. She said she will continue getting sponsors for children after the campaign is over. She also said that believes that whoever wins the challenge, children are the ultimate victors.
Miriam Quiambao
Miriam Quiambao, shared to us that when she heard about this challenge, “I said ‘yes’ right away. I’ve been a longtime ambassador for World Vision and I believe in that sponsorship can really uplift the lives of poor children, being a child sponsor myself.” She started sponsoring a child after winning first runner up in the 1999 Miss Universe beauty pageant. Now, she is a proud sponsor of 10 children, three of whom have already graduated.

For TV host and celebrity mom, Tintin Babao, sponsorship is a family affair. The Babaos sponsor four children – one for each member of their family. “We teach our kids the value of sharing our blessings. We even turn their birthdays into charity events,” she shared.

Tintin said that “being able to help a child is a gift, there is no price for sponsorship, yes. But the fulfillment of making a difference in the life of a child, that is priceless.”

TV host/actress, and one of the World Vision Ambassadors, Anne Curtis is also excited to be part of the challenge. “Anything that has to do with children I’m game!” Being a mainstay host of the popular noontime variety show, she was able to get her co-hosts and other celebrities to sign up as child sponsor.

World Vision Associate Director Jun Godornes shared that "This event is to recognize our celebrity sponsors for their selfless commitment in our ministry for the children. These four women have reinforced the fact that beauty is reflected in the abundance and overflow of a person's heart."
As we enjoy our wonderful world, let's celebrate life to the fullest!

Your sponsorship donation changes lives. By sponsoring a child, you, along with thousands of other Filipinos, are helping break the cycle of poverty for children in the Philippines. Together we can make a change.

When you sponsor a child, you provides one special child — and his or her community — life-changing basics like: nutritious food, clean water, access to healthcare and access to education.
