&FRIENDS Festival Launches Charity Drive for Mindanao Earthquake Relief
&FRIENDS Festival is marking Independence Day with a fundraising campaign to support communities affected by the recent 7.8-magnitude earthquake in Mindanao.
In partnership with One Million Lights Philippines, the festival announced a five-day charity drive that will donate a portion of ticket sales to earthquake relief and recovery efforts in affected areas.
From June 12 at 7:00 PM until June 16 at 11:59 PM, supporters can purchase festival tickets through Ticketmelon and MOVETIX using the promo code FRIENDSLANG20 to receive a 20 percent discount. As part of the initiative, &FRIENDS Festival will donate 10 percent of all proceeds generated through the campaign to One Million Lights Philippines.
“&FRIENDS has always been a place for people to come together,” said CEO Justin Banusing. “In these trying times, we hope to bring the community together to do good for our fellow Filipinos.”
One Million Lights Philippines is a nonprofit organization that works with rural and remote communities by providing sustainable solar energy solutions. Since 2011, the organization has supported more than 200 communities across the country through projects focused on education, livelihood, healthcare, and disaster resilience.
Festival organizers said the campaign aims to turn Independence Day celebrations into an opportunity to support ongoing relief efforts in Mindanao.
