Avida Land launches gift-giving Facebook app for OFWs

MANILA, Philippines - In this season of gift-giving and sharing, Avida Land, one of the country’s most trusted property developers, is spreading the holiday cheer among overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) and their families through an online gifts promo application on its Facebook page, dubbed, “Avida Pasalubong Project for the Global Pinoy,” which can be accessed at http:/ /apps.facebook.com/avida-pasalubong/.

OFWs now have the chance to give free gifts to their families in the Philippines. All they have to do is go to the Avida Facebook page and use the Facebook app especially created for the gift-giving promo.

“Gift-giving is a tradition that binds Filipino families, friends, and loved ones together. No matter how near or how far they are from each other, each gift exchanged is a tangible expression of love and care. This spirit of sharing bridges our relationships across time and distances. They foster unity, kindness, generosity, and friendship between us,” said Tess Tatco, Avida Land marketing manager.

OFWs and their loved ones can use the Facebook app until Jan. 5, 2013. In the case of OFWs, all they have to do is register for the Facebook app. Once they are registered, they have the chance to pick one of four special packages that they would like to send to their loved ones.

Their loved ones may also use the app and choose which package they wish to receive from their OFW family member.

The four gift packages include: a Food Box containing food items worth P20,000; a Gadgets Box containing an iPad 2; a Kiddie Box containing gadgets like an X-Box 360, iPod Shuffle and a Nokia phone; and a Perfume Box containing a set of perfume for men and women worth P20,000.
