Locally provides Taguig frontliners with immune-boosting natural juices

Tweet

In true Bayanihan spirit, NutriAsia provided essential frontliners from Taguig City with Locally Blended Juice Drink.

Medical and non-medical frontliners in Taguig’s checkpoints, vaccination sites, and barangay enjoyed Locally’s blended juice drink, which are made from fruits cultivated by Filipino farmers. The drinks help the frontliners stay hydrated, energized, and protected from illness as they go about their important duties with the juices’ natural vitamin C.

Some residents in Barangay Fort also received Locally Blended juice drink. Recipients include peace and order personnel, emergency & rescue personnel, daycare students, employees of the DSWD barangay base, Health Center Personnel, barangay frontliners, and zone coordinators.

This follows NutriAsia’s donation of boxes of Locally to various hospitals around Metro Manila earlier this month.

“We are truly happy to do our part in ensuring that our brave and dedicated frontliners are hydrated and protected from all illnesses through providing delicious Locally juice drinks that boost their energy and immunity,” said Gretchen King, Category Manager for Beverages at NutriAsia.

“As we donate Locally to our frontliners, we also manage to support our local farm industry, which is key in providing the fruits we use for our drinks.”

The fight against the Covid-19 virus isn’t over. With the invisible enemy still out there, it is still best to arm ourselves with the immunity boost that vitamin C provides. 

Locally has been handing out immunity and energy-boosting natural fruit juices to medical personnel, local government units, mobile markets, military staff, mobile kitchens, and more around the metro since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Together, we can all help each other out in healing and rebuilding our nation. Together, we can all help each other out in healing and rebuilding our nation.

5 Ways to Create CHERRYFIC MOM-ENTS

Tweet

Motherhood, they say, is one of the toughest jobs in the world as it is a woman’s never-ending journey of devoting all her love and care to her children. So, as a way of showing your appreciation to your super mom, give her a Mother’s Day celebration she won’t forget through these ideas you can easily pull off indoors:

Do the household chores. Sometimes, nothing feels more rewarding than an entire day of getting enough rest. Let your mom take a break by volunteering to do the chores. Do not limit this special event to a one-day celebration as this idea can be an everyday act of good deed! Another great suggestion is to give her an all-around cleaning tool that will make her chores easier like the Cherry x Deerma VC40 All-in-one Vacuum Cleaner. 

It features multiple brush heads: Double Roller, Banister, Electrostatic, and Flat Suction for various types of deep cleaning. It is cordless thus easier to use for different parts of the house, rechargeable, and has large capacity dust tank. Finally, it is equipped with noise reduction technology so your mom can keep the house spotless clean any time she finds it most convenient. Let your mom enjoy the ease of housework for just P10,490.

Prepare a special meal. Start off by letting her wake up to a scrumptious breakfast in bed. Then, share a meal with her that you prepared yourself. You can try to make your own version of her favorite food to make the dish even more memorable.

Watch her favorite movie together. May it be a decade-old chick flick or a coming-of-age film, ask your mom to watch her favorite movie with you. Laugh and cry together while comfortably lying down as you can conveniently enjoy this activity on a mobile phone. 

The Cherry Mobile Aqua S9 Max is one of the best choices in the market as it boasts a massive 6.53-inch FHD+ Teardrop Notch Display, and an impressive HelioG90T gaming chipset with an octa-core 2.05 GHz, 12nm processor for smooth and fast performance. It is also equipped with an 18W quick-charging, 5130mAh non-removable battery as well as liquid cooling technology for hours of watching movies.

Give her some pamper time. Since it is still not safe to spend a relaxing time at a spa or your go-to salon, why not pamper at home? Your mom will surely remember it better if you give her a full body massage. You should also make the most out of the day by fixing her hair and painting her nails—an activity-loaded day that screams nothing but stress-relieving.

Try out a new hobby. Discover new activities that you and your mom can enjoy—from cooking together to learning some complicated TikTok steps. You can also try some arts and crafts and give the finished products to each other to have something to remember this year’s Mother’s Day by.

Give a mom-of-a-kind Mother’s Day present that will surely be treasured for a lifetime.
