Did you know that October is Smile Month? 🙂 Smiles are the truest expression of happiness. And trust Havaianas to commemorate Smile Month this October with very special events that have equally special causes!
Havaianas, the world’s favorite flip-flops, is launching the “Design a Smile” campaign to spread cheer and share thousands of smiles with Filipino children! Havaianas is creating a venue for children to heal the broken smiles of other children who have cleft lip and cleft palate deformities.
The Havaianas Design A Smile series of contests will give children the chance to show the world their artistic talents and, at the same time, create better futures for the children of Operation Smile, a non-profit, volunteer medical organization that provides reconstructive surgery and healthcare to kids with facial deformities.
Children from 5 to 12 years of age can participate in “Design a Smile” to lend their creativity for a greater cause. All they have to do is come to any of the events and design the sole of a Havaianas pair based on the theme, “What makes you smile?”
Here in Mindanao, the Havaianas Design A Smile contests will be held at…
Cagayan de Oro City on October 31, 2010, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Rotunda of Limketkai Mall.
According to Spruce, one of my favorite boutiques in Cagayan de Oro City and one of the outlets where you can buy Havaianas in CDO, the activity is FREE of registration but donation will be highly appreciated.
The Davao City leg will be held on October 24, 2010 at Chimes Specialty Store.
Prizes from Havaianas, My Masterpiece Movement, Polaroid, Faber-Castell, KidsSports, and Orange Juice await the winners.
The top winning entry will be produced by Havaianas in a future collection and will be sold nationwide for the benefit of Operation Smile.
Absolutely cool prizes, yes? 🙂
So, this October, let your kids share their creativity and help heal the smiles of their fellow children.
Don’t forget — children with ages 5 to 12 years can join. Bring your kids, nephews, nieces! 🙂
See you guys there!
