I grew
up in Divisoria. I was a witness when they first took the initiative to
modernize Tutuban and now it’s celebrating it’s
silver anniversary.
Twenty-five
years is “25” years. Thus, for any corporate establishment silver anniversaries
are momentous milestones greeted with glamor and festivities, and Tutuban
Center takes no exception, looking forward with excitement and anticipation as
it continually strives to grow further the trust of Pinoy shoppers.
Looking
ahead moving to its next 25 years, notwithstanding redevelopment plans in the
pipeline, Tutuban Center took time out of the usual grand celebrations,
choosing instead a simplistic yet meaningful observance of its anniversary, anchored
on thanksgiving and sharing with the community.
Fashion for Compassion
Tutuban
Center greeted February 21 with a blood-letting activity in partnership with
the Philippine Red Cross. Its afternoon
was highlighted by a thanksgiving mass participated by its tenants, service
providers, other business partners and it’s very own employees. Closing the
day’s celebration, in partnership with “Mode Elle” alongside the participation
of selected tenants, it held “Fashion for Compassion,” a fund-raising activity
having as its beneficiaries “Tahan-Tahanan” and “Child Haus.”
“Tahan-tahanan”
is a haven for cancer-stricken children and their families coming from the
provinces who seek treatment in Metro Manila hospitals. Similary, “Child Haus” provides temporary
shelter for province-based indigent cancer patients.
Indeed, it’s
a silver milestone worth celebrating in the glitziest and most fabulous manner.
But nobody said glitz and glamor can’t be meaningful and this year, Tutuban
Center wants to make a difference.
