The said campaign is also an addition to Shell’s numerous efforts in line with its thrust of finding more ways to deliver more and cleaner energy.
According to Cesar Romero, Country Chairman of Shell companies in the Philippines, the #MakeTheFuture campaign is an opportunity to promote energy consciousness and education among youngsters, as well as to engage them to join the discussion on improving and making the future of energy.
“Everything that we are doing today impacts on future generations, and it is interesting to see what tomorrow’s decision-makers and leaders know about energy, how they’re affected and what they think must happen to ensure that Shell can help make the future sustainable for them,” says Cesar Romero, country chairman of Shell companies in the Philippines.

At the said event, the #MakeTheFuture campaign was first revealed, with the young attendees among the first ones to see it. Among the attendees were children of celebrities, including Nathan Linsangan, son of Camille Prats-Yambao; Micaela Pingris, daughter of Danica Sotto-Pingris; and Eia Tan, daughter of Sherilyn Reyes-Tan. Other kids who attended were from the Trumpets Playshop, The School of Academics and Arts, Eton International School, and kids of members of the press.
“We really want to empower kids. They have so much potential to create things, and all we need to do is give them the right resources and opportunities,” says Romero. “By showing them that we can put renewable energy to good use, like powering up communities, we hope to help them realize that they can make the future of energy clean, sustainable and possible for everyone,” he adds.
