It's Lolo and Lola's Day as SM Supermalls Celebrates Grand Parents' Day in over 63 malls across the country!
Thursday, September 07, 2017
There are so many reasons why I am excited to celebrate Grand Parents Day even though both my lolo and lola are in heaven now. I just want to celebrate how fruitful their lives were when they are still here with us, both my lolo and lola lived their lives to the fullest, my lola whom we fondly call "Inang" gave her unconditional love to all of us even to her last breath, she is actually my mentor because she is brave, confident, headstrong, resourceful and very hardworking to the point that she doesn't want to stop. At the age of 70 years old she's still working as a seamstress, for many years she helped us with our financial needs and I wish I can be like her, I'm a very lucky "apo" and if there's such a thing as reincarnation, I wish she can still be my grandmother again and again...
I'm lucky that I get to spent wonderful years with my Inang and I wish she's still here right now but for all of you who still have your grand parents by your side, make sure to spend quality time with them, you don't need to celebrate Grand Parents Day in order for you to realize how important their presence is to your lives, let's make everyday
Grand Parents Day!
With this in mind, thankfully, SM Supermalls supports our love and devotion to our grand parents as they celebrate Grand Parents' Day in over 63 malls across the country!
This September, SM Supermalls underscores this meaningful bond as SM celebrates Grandparents' Day in 63 SM malls nationwide. Recognizing our beloved seniors' tenderness towards the family, this season also allows grandparents to express their love for their grandkids through a host of fun-filled activities at SM.
"She's very maalaga, always making sure everyone around her is having a good time and being taken care of," remarked Janine Gutierrez when asked about her "Mamita," Pilita Corrales, Asia's Queen of Songs. The cover shoot outtakes undeniably characterize the special connection that Filipinos share with their elders.

Present during the Media Conference of SM Grand Parents' Day were Jackielou Blanco
and Angeli Pangilinan-Valenciano
Both Jackielou and Angeli are proud grand parents already and they shared how momentous the feeling is of being a lola. They also shared how they're going to spend the Grand Parents' Day with their family and how dotting they are when it comes to their apo.
Starting August 29, "grand" treats and activities for lolos and lolas include exciting shopping and dining deals, and the Sounds of the 60s Fitness Party, where mallgoers can join our elderly as they get fit with fun fitness classes.
Also not to be missed are the App with Apo (Sept. 2, 3, 9. 10), an activity where grandparents can learn useful mobile apps with their grandkids at SM Cyberzone; and the Art with Apo (Sept. 9, 10), where lolos and Iotas can enjoy meaningful bonding moments with their apos through arts and crafts. Come Grandparents' Day (Sept. 10), there will be a special blessing for grandparents after the Sunday Mass.
Mallgoers can also join the digital promo where they only need to share on Facebook their plans on how they will spend their family's happiest #DateWithLoloAndLoia for a chance to win PhP10,000 worth of SM GCs.
