BURLINGAME, CALIF., July 15, 2005 – The Filipino Channel (TFC), the number one Filipino network in the U.S., drew another lucky winner from its newly launched TFC Kapamilya Circle loyalty program and gave $25,000 to Susie del Rosario of Ocala, Fla. in a random drawing.
TFC is giving away a grand total of $150,000 over the next 4 weeks as part of a sweepstakes designed to thank viewers, watching on cable or satellite, and celebrate more than 10 years of consistent and innovative service. Members of the exclusive Kapamilya Circle are automatically registered for a chance to win.
The del Rosario family is a new TFC Direct subscriber after relocating from New York. After completing the move, Ms. del Rosario saw signing-up for TFC as a very important priority that was needed to keep her family connected to their Filipino heritage.
“May nakilala akong Filipina at tinuro niya ako dun sa isa pang Filipino na dealer ng TFC Direct sa may Filipino store,” said Susie del Rosario (I met a Filipina who told me about a Filipino store near our area who was also a TFC Direct dealer.) “So we applied right away, because we wanted our daughter to be in touch with her Filipino roots.
TFC will hold just four more drawings to encourage TFC viewers from across the country to join TFC Kapamilya Circle’s Sweepstakes and redeem their rewards for a variety of ABS-CBN International (ABS-CBNi) products and services.
“TFC was designed to be a bridge back home to the more than seven million Filipinos working and living abroad, and the Kapamilya Circle thanks them for being a part of the TFC family,” said Esperanza Cabunoc, Senior Manager of TFC Direct at ABS-CBN International. “TFC congratulates Susie del Rosario for being a TFC Direct subscriber – and for telling all her friends about how easy it is to join the Kapamilya Circle.”
