Meanwhile, the ICANSERVE holiday ornament is a classic gift that recipients look forward to every year. The design for 2018 is a tribute to the Filipino parol(Christmas lantern)—our own symbol of light. They say the parol was made from paper and illuminated with a candle in the early days to help light the path of barrio folk on their way to Misa de Gallo. Inside card text reads: “May the light of the season burn bright in your hearts.” Get card and ornament in a gift box for only P300. Email This email address is being protected from spambots.

ICANSERVE will have a pop-up booth in Power Plant Mall on October 5-7, 12-14 and 19-21. Visit them on P1 Level for more gifts that give back.
