Hi all, we recently did a covid-19 relief sale by selling Academia : School Simulator. The amount raised was about $250 (thanks to everyone who bought the game during the sale!). There’s a lot of people in need and a lot of work to be done. So we decided to supplement it by adding $750. We’re sharing this so folks know where their money is going. This crisis is only beginning, and as it progresses the team will discuss how much more we can do to contribute. Thanks again, and stay safe, stay at home, and wash your hands every hour or so.
Recipients:
Lockdown Cinema ($100/5000PHP)
Your contribution will help provide provisionary cash allowances to our fellow Filipino film workers during the Community Quarantine put into place by our government. Feel free to buy up to 10 "tickets" depending on how much you wish to contribute.
Open House ($100/5000PHP)
During difficult times like these, we rely a lot on artists to help us get through. From shows to stories, music to dance, art helps us get by. But these difficult times also mean that artists need us to help them get through, too. It’s time for us to give back to the community that gave us so much joy, memories and inspiration.
The COVID-19 lockdown caused thousands of Filipino freelancers, performers, designers, technicians, and production staff to lose their jobs, projects, and income. They are a special type of worker that escapes the protection of the public sector and are very much vulnerable. They face an uncertain future in the coming months, due to shows being cancelled or postponed indefinitely.
Emergency Quarantine Facilities for COVID-19 Patients and PUIs ($200/10000PHP)
WTA Architecture and Design Studio has been called on by the Philippines Marine Corps to provide services of constructing quarantine facilities for their frontliners who have been stationed in several checkpoint locations since 15 March 2020.
With this, the teams behind WTA and the Anthology Festival collaboratively designed an emergency quarantine facility to help house patients and reduce the load on the hospital. To fully implement the design, WTA tapped different industry experts and lead innovators to create the EQF Team.

Life Cycles ($200/10000PHP)
Public transport is suspended, but doctors, nurses, and grocery and drugstore employees need to get to work. Many of them don’t have cars, and their only alternative is to walk.
Our plan is to pair up with hospitals, groceries, drugstores, and LGUs and help their frontliners get to work.
If you have an extra bike you can spare or lend, or cash (one bike is approximately Php 5,000.00)—we promise you that we’ll get it to a frontliner in need. Helmets and locks are also welcome!

Care For Children Bidlisiw Foundation ($100/5000PHP)
A FOOD SUBSIDY donation drive for the families of children in need of special protection, who are greatly affected by the COVID-19 crisis. Beneficiaries are from the urban poor communities of Cebu City, Mandaue City, Lapu-Lapu City, and Camotes Island.
Bidlisiw Foundation, Inc. takes care of marginalized families with children in need of special protection. These families, who belong to the informal sector of society, are currently undergoing healing, recovery, and reintegration programs.
At this time when enhanced community quarantine is imposed, our family beneficiaries suffer. The daily wage earners’ livelihood is directly hit by closure of businesses, while the self-employed have limited opportunities to continue with their economic activities.
