Shopee, together with its new brand ambassador Kris Aquino, surprised three (03) Filipino families with special deliveries just a few weeks before Christmas. As the festive season is just around the corner, Shopee started the online initiative My Shopee 11.11 Christmas Wish by asking users what they wanted to receive this holiday.

Most wishes were simple, heartwarming, and centered on earning enough to feed their families and sustain their current livelihood. Each of the families whose wishes have been granted received PHP50,000 in cash, PHP10,000 worth of ShopeePay credits, and a specific wish granted.

Last 10 November 2020, Shopee brand ambassador Kris Aquino personally delivered the gifts right at their doorsteps.

Ramel Magale, 25

Ramel Magale works in the restaurant delivery service to support his parents and younger siblings. Shopee grants his wish for a motorcycle so that he may deliver food to customers easily. 

Lorna Nonong, 38

Lorna Nonong is a housewife, mother to three children, and caretaker to a relative with special needs. She sells seafood online while her husband works as a family driver. Shopee gave her a refrigerator and sari-sari store package to help support her family during these challenging times. Kris Aquino also donated an extra PHP10,000 cash to help support her relative with special needs.

Eugenia Peñaranda, 45

Eugenia Peñaranda is a housewife and mother to seven children. She cleans laundry for a living and her husband works as a family driver. Shopee granted her wish of a washing machine to make her work less tedious, school supplies for her children, and a sari-sari store package for an extra source of income.

According to Martin Yu, Associate Director at Shopee Philippines, “We are more than excited to spread joy and kindness to our Filipino users through My Shopee 11.11 Christmas Wish. Christmas has always been a highly anticipated holiday in the Philippines and we want to take this opportunity to create happy and meaningful memories with our users during this season of giving. We are grateful to have Kris Aquino interact and engage with these families in need and we will continue to come up with initiatives like this to bring joy to the Filipino community and spread the benefits of online shopping to everyone.”
