3. PLUSH AND PLAY. Among the popular international toy brands, Plush and Play stands out with a marketplace themed booth filled with cutie plush toys of fruits and veggies. This is actually a Filipino toy brand born from a social enterprise! Plush and Play is in partnership with Gawad Kalinga to help give livelihood to a Bulacan Community. We managed to interview its founder; a french guy Fabien Courtelle, the social entrepreneur who started as a volunteer for Gawad. Fueled by passion and desire to help the less fortunate communities, his team of volunteers is managing a small farm producing quality plush toys. He wants the youth to engage in building social enterprises, but also to benefit the less fortunate as well. He is keen to have coproduction and welcomes interns that will aid him with the cause. So visit their marketstand and get a plushie toy! And, help support Plush and Play’s cause!
