A new wave of support is coming for Cebu earthquake survivors through EARTHQUAKE BAYC (Box All You Can), a fundraising event happening on October 19, 2025, from 10 AM to 5 PM at the Dusit Thani Manila Garden Area. This special edition of BAYC is dedicated to the people of Bogo, Tabogo, and Daanbantayan, three towns in Cebu that were severely affected by the recent earthquake.

What makes this initiative unique is its sustainable relief model. All proceeds from the event will go directly to operations providing hot meals and clean drinking water to families displaced by the earthquake. The organizers are working with local Cebu farmers, purchasing their produce to prepare and distribute cooked food such as sweet potatoes, pumpkins, and corn instead of canned goods or instant noodles.

To address the urgent need for potable water, Waves for Water is helping install filtration systems that make ground and well water safe to drink.

Join the Box All You Can challenge for ₱999 per box, where you have seven minutes to fill a 12” x 10” x 8” box with as much as you can. If you prefer, you can also donate your box. Every ₱999 donation provides 10 kilos of vegetables for the community kitchens in Cebu.
