Canon Marketing Philippines, Inc. recently held the “3,2,1 Smile!” photo walk CSR event in collaboration with the Down Syndrome Association of the Philippines, Inc. (DSAPI) at the Dessert Museum in Pasay. This event brought together employees and children from DSAPI for a day of bonding, creativity, and community.
During the event, Canon employees and DSAPI children explored the museum’s colorful, dessert-themed rooms, capturing the fun and excitement with Canon cameras. Participants embarked on a delightful journey through each room, bursting with color and whimsical decorations, providing a playful and visually stunning backdrop for the photo walk.
Following the photo walk, the children showcased their talents in a heartwarming performance that highlighted their unique abilities and joy. The day concluded with a shared meal, creating an opportunity for deeper connections and reflections on the experience.
Anuj Aggarwal, President and CEO of Canon Marketing Philippines, Inc., reflected on the event: “At Canon, we believe in the power of imagery to connect and inspire. ‘3,2,1 Smile!’ provided a platform for our team and the wonderful children from DSAPI to share moments of joy and creativity. Our commitment to community engagement is strengthened by such enriching experiences.”
