MANILA, Philippines  —  Adapting to the new reality will take some time, especially with daily routines drastically altered and shifted to adapt to government mandated guidelines to adhere to global health standards. Things are no longer as simple as it once was. Going out on weekends, meeting friends over coffee, getting a quick milk tea fix, or simply going out on a grocery run— all of these are now put to a stop by safety precautions imposed. Looking at these minute everyday privileges we tend to overlook before the pandemic are now luxuries that seem too far-off.

As Southeast Asia’s leading everyday super app, Grab seeks to fill in the gap, to make the situation better, to say the least, by helping Filipinos adapt to the new normal by becoming their everyday partner.

Celebrating its 8th anniversary, Grab Philippines is helping Filipinos foster a sense of normalcy among its users to experience the things they miss the most and fulfilling the things they missed out on while on lockdown through the Sagot Kita campaign running from June 8 to July 11.

Sagot Kita is an initiative that aims to help Filipinos adapt to the new normal by granting the experiences Filipinos miss the most about their life before the pandemic, and extending Grab’s range of services as their partner during these unprecedented and trying times.

With this campaign, Grab will be giving gifts to and granting requests of Filipinos, reliving moments and helping them usher in new ways of doing things in light of the pandemic affecting the way we live. May it be a favorite drink or snack that they haven’t had in a while, a person they miss, normal weekend activities like hanging out with friends, or a celebration missed during the quarantine, Grab will try to make it happen.

In one of the wishes granted, Jean Aira received gifts in the form of baby supplies — which were delivered via GrabExpress. Aira is a stay-in nurse at the Cardinal Santos Medical Center and has been separated from her one-year old daughter to ensure her safety.

Zzeljhay Tanaman, a GrabFood driver-partner, joined a group of Grab riders in starting a donation drive for frontliners. He wished for groceries to help support his family’s needs, and was then surprised with a grocery pack ordered from GrabMart.

Dani Garcia, a college student who just passed her thesis and is a candidate for graduation,  was also able to celebrate with her family over pizza and milk tea ordered on GrabFood since her family has been prioritizing only the necessities ever since the quarantine was placed all over the metro.

Many more of these moments and requests are slated to be granted in the next couple of days, as Grab proves to be the Filipinos’ partner in adapting to the new normal— making ways for everyone to accomplish tasks and purchase their needs in the safety of their homes with the help of Grab’s services.

“The pandemic has caused disruption in everyone’s lives— whether it be accessing basic necessities, spending time with loved ones, or celebrating moments. During trying times like this, our aim at Grab is to make everyday living easier and better for everyone through our services,“ said Grab Philippines Marketing Head, RJ Cabaluna. “The Sagot Kita campaign is our way of helping Filipinos adapt to this new reality by helping them get the things and moments that matter despite the limitations brought about by the pandemic,” he added.

Grab has also partnered with Nestle, Pringles and Kellogg’s, San Miguel Brewery, Ginebra San Miguel, San Miguel Foods, Lazada, Unilever and P&G to help relive moments and fulfill wishes through special raffle prizes and bundles for their cravings, home parties, shopping and pampering.

Consumers can visit Grab’s facebook page and share the things and experiences they miss the most on the Sagot Kita post. A Grab representative will reach out to the chosen consumers for their special gift.
