Finding the right family car is not only a choice made by a dad who is a car enthusiast. In fact, having your own family vehicle is necessary. It will not only allow you comfort and convenience as you go through your daily schedules and tasks, or fetching the little ones to and from school, but it will also enable you to save up money in the long run. Investing on a reliable family car is also a sound choice compared to renting vans or cars whenever you travel.

Of course, finding the best family car entails careful decision making as it is a major purchase. It needs meticulous planning as it will be a regular and big expense to add up to monthly mortgages, school tuition, or groceries. Here are 3 things to consider in searching for the perfect car for your family:

Family Budget

If you have prepared earlier on and have set aside a part of your savings for years to your family car fund, then you are on the right track. But if you are hard up on cash and may not afford to buy a car in cold cash, you might want to explore securing a car loan or other forms of financing to help you get that family dream car and soon. Setting a budget that would fit your monthly earning will also prove to be a sound decision. It is also important to be on the look out for deals and promos at your local car dealers so you can get the best value for your money when it is time to purchase your dream family car. You might also want to consider getting a used car instead of a brand new one, to fit your monetary requirements. Car websites such as cars.com have a wide-range list of brand new and used cars a potential buyer or client can choose from.

Save the Children Philippines launches  ‘Lahat Santa’, inviting all individuals,
companies, associations, and schools to become a hero for the country’s children this Christmas

Save the Children launches its new Christmas campaign #LahatSanta, giving everyone an exciting opportunity to become Santa to poor kids.

“In the Philippines, 1 in 3 children suffers from stunted growth due to hunger and malnutrition, and this means that they won’t be able to reach their full potential. Poor families struggle to feed their children and it’s estimated that 1.5 million Filipino children go to sleep hungry every night, not having eaten a thing all day,” says Dr. Amado Parawan, Save the Children’s Health and Nutrition Advisor.

Be a hero, wear a Santa sombrero!

Lahat Santa is a new fun way to celebrate Christmas! Save the Children encourages individuals, schools and companies to wear their Santa hats, raise funds in their own creative way and make the holidays much more meaningful by donating to Save the Children’s programs.

Upon signing up on www.lahatsanta.ph, participants get a free fundraising kit which includes a coin bank, Christmas poster, and a Santa hat. The kit includes ways you can fundraise, from bake sale to the good old Christmas caroling – it is up to the participants how they’ll spread the cheer.

On the day of action on December 15

Save the Children calls on participants to put on their Santa hats and shout out on social media how they are fundraising for Save the Children using hashtag #LahatSanta. The fun does not stop here. On December 17, a fun run will be organized to benefit Save the Children’s Christmas campaign.

Filipino artists and influencers such as Ria Atayde, Bianca Guidotti, Jeushl Wensh Tiu, and Trish Ramos have also expressed interest in the campaign. Many reputable companies have also come together to support Save the Children’s campaign, including BPI Foundation, Family Mart, Strong Media Advertising Solutions Inc., Light Network, Nyxsys, OLX, ANC, Business Mirror, Page One, Manila Scope, Philippine Graphic, Lamudi, Manila Times, Manila Bulletin, Manila Business Insight, Pilipino Mirror, Zen Health and When In Manila,

“With every Lahat Santa hat comes great responsibility. Your commitment to Lahat Santa campaign could mean life-saving support for a child. Your donation can provide treatment to babies suffering from malnutrition and help expand our programs that could impact their lives in the long run, Save the Children’s Head of Strategic Partnerships, Riel Andaluz, reminds the public.
