Barangay Shopee grants Community Wishes like Basketball Courts, Multi-Purpose Hall Renovation, and more

Shopee is all set for its much-awaited 9.9 Super Shopping Day; in time with the event, Shopee has launched Barangay Shopee, which will allow Filipinos to sponsor their local barangays by using the money through the Shopee Bayanihan CSR program.

This contest is an excellent way for Shopee users from all over the Philippines to come together and create something to help their barangay. Winners of this competition can choose any community project they want, like building new basketball courts or renovating multi-purpose halls, public school supplies, and other community-building projects.

“We are thrilled to be launching our newest initiative, Barangay Shopee. In everything that we do, we work towards our main mission of bettering the lives of our users, sellers, and communities through technology. Through Barangay Shopee, our goal is to foster the community spirit of barangays from all over the Philippines, and uplift them by providing them with a community project that their whole barangay can benefit from. We look forward to crafting even more initiatives that will help make e-commerce more accessible for all,” Martin Yu, Director at Shopee Philippines said. 

Barangay Shopee is a digital project of Shopee Bayanihan, the company’s umbrella CSR program that seeks to harness technology and help communities benefit from transformation wherever they are in the Philippines.
