THE Mandani Bay gave joy to more than 200 children in Mandaue City during the holidays.

The gift-giving activity was held at Mandani Bay’s the Tent, a few days before Christmas.

Each child, selected by the Mandaue City Social Welfare Services (CSWS) Office from various communities, went home with noche buena items and basic household goods.

The party was attended by Mandani Bay project advisor Jeffrey Lun, sales head Audrey Villa, marketing head Leorelei Ylaya and Mandaue City North Reclamation Area manager Marvin Soco.

Employee-volunteers of Mandani Bay and the CSWS staff facilitated the program.

The children had fun with a magic show and exciting games. They displayed their talent in dancing, and the adults in the audience applauded them.

The activity is part of Mandani Bay’s corporate social responsibility program, which includes projects in education and environmental rehabilitation.

Mandani Bay, developed by the Hongkong Land, LLC-Taft Properties Inc. joint venture HTLand Inc., is emerging as a world-class lifestyle destination and a landmark community in Mandaue City.

Strategically located along the Mactan Channel, the 20-hectare waterfront development boasts of stunning views of the coast and cityscape.

Built around a lifestyle of connectivity, this premium mixed-use community hosts a series of expansive podium blocks interconnected by footbridges. Residential towers rise from each of the podiums’ amenity roof decks, while street front retail thrives along the wide boulevards.

At the base, the buildings are connected by a system of exclusive parking spaces weaving throughout the property. For strolling aboveground or driving and parking underground, Mandani Bay provides complete convenience, allowing time for loftier pursuits.

Its 500-meter water frontage is defined by the iconic boardwalk which enables relaxation or an evening walk amid a spectacular view of the sea.

At the heart of Mandani Bay is the Green Promenade, a wide tree-lined avenue that cuts through the center of the property, lending the environment a refreshing spirit that encourages an active lifestyle among residents.

Mandani Bay has set the bar for a new era of development in the Philippines.
