Marco Polo Ortigas Manila

Dining | Events, 8 October 2024
MANILA, Philippines, 08 October 2024 - The Ortigas skyline once again lights up in pink, as Marco Polo Ortigas Manila welcomes October in pursuit of Pinktober, its established advocacy on Breast Cancer Awareness, and this time, in partnership with Cardinal Santos Medical Center.

The hotel customized a Pink Latte (Php 200/serving) specifically for the Pinktober campaign, available until the end of the month in five of Marco Polo Ortigas Manila's restaurant and bars, including in-room dining; Cafe Pronto, cucina, Lung Hin, and Connect Lounge. The refreshing drink enchants with a vibrant hue and creamy texture, seamlessly blending earth beetroot sweetness with rich, velvety milk. A hint of espresso adds depth, balancing the flavours with a gentle bitterness, while subtle notes of vanilla or cinnamon elevate the experience. This delightful beverage is not only a treat for the senses but also a warm embrace of community support for a meaningful cause.

"Marco Polo Ortigas Manila is gratefyk to its stakeholders and patrons, for allowing continuity of the hotel's breast cancer awarenss advocacy. We wish to help, in what humble capacity we can, to fght the good fight against this illness," General Manager Fredrik Johansson shared. "We learned that in the Philippines, breast cancer occurence is among the highest in Asia. Verified data affirms the ever-increasing need to raise awareness, in order for more lives to ne saved by early detection and proper treatment."

Cardinal Santos Medical Center President nd CEO Mr. Raul C. Pagdanganan averred, "We are pleased to partner with Marco Polo Ortigas Manila for this important cause. Proceeds from the sales of the Pink Latte will be generously donated to the Cardinal Medical Charities Foundation, inc. (CMCFI), our arm in providing quality care for the underserved. These contributions will have a significant impact, providing much-needed financil support to underpriviledged patients seeking breast cancer treatment. As a PhilHealth-accredited healthcare facility for the Breast Cancer Z-Benefit package, Cardinal Santos Medical Center remains commited to ensuring that these patients receive the quality care they deserve, and this donation will further enhance our ability to make life-saving treatment more accessible."
