Every Happy Meal purchase, for as low as P90, can make two children happy as McDonald’s matches each purchase by gifting a toy or a book to kids from partner beneficiaries.

With the community’s support, the chain, since the program’s launch on Nov. 27, has already distributed books and toys with the help of partner organizations such as the Philippine Red Cross, Philippine Disaster Resilience Foundation, Philippine Business for Social Progress, Manila Water Foundation, and Makati Med Foundation. 

Beneficiaries of the Happy Meal Buy 1 Share 1 program include children from areas affected by typhoons Rolly and Ulysses such as those in Rizal, Marikina, Albay, Batangas, Quezon, Catanduanes, Camarines Sur, Pampanga, and Sorsogon, as well as a number of local government units and non-government organizations and all Bahay Bulilit communities.

Customers who want to help in the initiative can simply order at McDonald’s for dine-in, takeout, drive-thru, or McDelivery until Dec. 31.
