Ayala Malls, long celebrated for its excellence in shopping center development and management, has added two new feathers on its cap - an Anvil Award of Merit for Bravo Filipino, and another Anvil Award of Merit for Market! Market! tarp bag.

The Anvil is the symbol of excellence in public relations in the Philippines. Each award is deliberated by a distinguished multi-sectoral jury for outstanding public relations programs and tools designed and implemented in the past year. The Anvil Awards competition is conducted annually by the Public Relations Society of the Philippines.

Ayala Malls' awards are:

BRAVO FILIPINO: A Tribute to Filipinos Creativity and Ingenuity - AWARD OF MERIT, Community Engagement Category

Conceptualized by Don Jaime Zobel together with Ayala Malls and Filipinas Heritage Library. Bravo Filipino was a four-month festival celebrating the Filipino genius in music, fashion, photography, and dance.

MARKET! MARKET! TARP BAG: Made of recycled tarp materials, every bag is uniquely designed and one of its kind - AWARD OF MERIT, Community Engagement Category.

The Market! Market! tarp bag was lovingly crafted by people from urban poor communities and a center for persons with disabilities in cooperation with Gifts and Graces Fair Foundation . The campaign is proof that commercial interests can be used to support worthy causes, as well as open doors for fund raising.
