SM Supermalls bags two Quill Awards

Wins in Special & Experiential Events and Community Engagement categories for Toy Fezt 2.0 and Global Youth Summit 2024

 

SM Supermalls was honored with two Philippine Quill Merit Awards at the 21st Philippine Quill Awards, recognizing the success of its community engagement efforts–Toy Fezt 2.0 and SM Cares’ Global Youth Summit 2024.

Superheroes and anime characters took center stage at SM Supermalls’ vibrant Toy Fezt 2.0 celebration.

Toy Fezt 2.0 thrilled toy collectors and enthusiasts as SM Supermalls transformed its event spaces into spectacular showcases of fan-made, life-sized action figures. The exhibit kicked off at SM City Bacoor in June 2024, offering fans an immersive celebration of action figures and pop culture, before travelling to SM City Sorsogon in Bicol, and SM City Sta. Rosa and SM City Trece Martires in South Luzon.

Meanwhile, the Global Youth Summit 2024 was organized by SM Cares in partnership with the Global Peace Foundation. It empowered over 24,000 young leaders across 17 provinces nationwide, culminating in a grand finale at the Mall of Asia Arena. The summit ignited the passion of youth to champion the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and awarded seed grants worth P250,000 to support sustainability-driven projects.

San Agustin. “Through Toy Fezt 2.0, we celebrate the passion of fandom. Through the Global Youth Summit, we empower the next generation to build a sustainable future. Both initiatives reflect our vision of malls as more than shopping spaces—they are platforms for inspiration, connection, and transformation.”
