Bicol-based independent artists and musicians have put together a fundraiser to help provide basic needs to their local frontline health workers.
Their campaign, “Give Them a Coffee Break,” was created after a local nurse shared how rarely they’re able to eat snacks during work and that they still pay for their food, commute, and basic necessities out of their own pockets.

By purchasing from these artists’ catalog of digital products, you will also help support these front liners during these difficult times.
“As visual artists and musicians, we would like to help in our own creative way. With the funds from our sales, we will be sending cash instead of packed snacks so they can buy a hot meal and other needs,” artist Bem Zenit shared.
You can purchase art bundles priced at PHP 300 each or purchase individual sticker sets and art for PHP 100 each. Art bundles include wallpapers, undated planners, calligraphy worksheets, stickers, zines, and a whole lot more!

You can also pay for two-week access to a secret Facebook group where musicians Yūgen Sundae, Jhasmine Villanueva, and hotbitterwater will share their live performances, songwriting process, and the behind-the-scenes of their songs. One e-ticket is priced at PHP 150.
Orders may be placed through this form.
