Champion for a clean environment
MANILA, Philippines - A project of the ABS-CBN Foundation, the Pasig River Run is one of the biggest charity events in the country that saw over 80,000 participants. Athletes, celebrities, society figures, marathon enthusiasts, environmentalists, and the public were seen running side by side showing their support for the project’s noteworthy cause.
Laundry detergent Champion strengthened its commitment to Filipino households and the community at large when it recently sponsored the 2011 Pasig River Run.
“It was a great privilege for us to be part of this event,” said Carlos Bacani, Champion marketing manager. “We are happy to be one with the nation in helping save one of our natural treasures.”
Pasig River advocates: Jasper Tiu with wife Shera C. Tiu, PPMC president Simeon Tiu with ABS-CBN‘s Gia Ramos and Ernie Lopez Champion is also credited for using environment-friendly ingredients while providing what most Filipinos look for in a laundry detergent.
