The call to act selflessly, to be responsible, to support others, and to care about the future has magnified even more during the pandemic. The need for love, which overflows to actions to benefit both loved ones and strangers, echoes louder for every individual who finds himself in a vulnerable situation. Seeking ways to reach out amidst unusual circumstances demand creativity. Indeed, at a time so pressing as today, each one is called to steward resources to be light to others.
#BOSSTOGETHER Global Campaign
Proving to be more than just a fashion brand, BOSS initiated a global campaign aimed to support local communities and businesses that were greatly affected by the pandemic. In countries like France, Germany, Italy, the UK, and the US, the fashion house connected with various movers and makers to share with the world how their passions and professions keep them positive throughout the trying times.
As for Asia, the campaign is highly driven on supporting F&B businesses through two objectives: 1) collaborating with chefs and restaurants; and, 2) creating an exclusive menu in which a portion of its sales is donated to a chosen foundation or charity. This initiative has successfully taken off in Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, and Thailand.
Launching this December, #BOSSTOGETHERPH is coming to its next stop, the Philippines.
#BOSSTogetherPH
Through a gastronomical partnership between BOSS and Chef JP Anglo, from December 1 to 31, 2020, 10% of the sales from the exclusive menu will be donated to the YesPinoy Foundation, which provides food to marginalized families and frontliners, as well as education-to-employment support for youth beneficiaries. As an added incentive, customers can shop BOSS at 15% off through Trunc.ph within the promo period.
With roots coming from the rich culinary landscape of Bacolod until the time he entered the Manila dining scene, Chef JP Anglo is one of the country’s renowned chefs. The owner of three successful restaurants in Manila: Sarsa, KaféBatwan, and Liberation Shawarma, he is known for his modern cooking style by mixing various Asian techniques and ingredients for unique-tasting dishes.
“Having been given this opportunity, I’m very thrilled to offer a menu that was created with a special dedication to those in need. For every order, every bite, someone, somewhere is fed. I think the menu is very heartfelt and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did creating it,” Chef JP shares.
