(We received this email-invitation from Ms. Deirdre de Padua of the UP JMA. While we are not connected with this project, we are more than glad to spread the word, especially considering that the proceeds will go to charity. Good luck to the UPJMA and its project.

Hi, the UP Junior Marketing Association is looking for concessionaires for our bazaar this September 27-28, 2008. It's called, BUY PINOY: A Charity Bazaar for Filipinos. Proceeds of the bazaar will go to Bantay Bata and the Kids Integrated Development through Schooling (KIDS) Program. Furthermore, the bazaar will also sell merchandise of NGOs. Yabang Pinoy and the Philippine Animal Welfare Society, who will also hold a pet adoption fair, will be participating. This bazaar aims to empower the Filipino entrepreneur and raise awareness about several worthy causes.

The bazaar will be at the La Vista Subdivision basketball court, Quezon City. We will be renting tent to cover the court. Concessionaire fee is just Php 3,000 + 10% gross sales for two days. It includes a table and two chairs, but concessionaires are free to bring any other materials as long as they stay within the area we will designate for them.

This bazaar will be advertised on Campus Radio 99.5 and Clickthecity.com. It will also be featured on the ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC). We are currently working on more media partners. There will be an official launch in our college. Tarps will be posted and fliers will be given out in La Vista, Loyola Grand Villas, Xavierville and Varsity Hills. Members and applicants of UP JMA will be required to attend the bazaar.

We hope that you can help us out by letting the members of your group know about this bazaar and posting this information on your blog. Interested concessionaires can email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
