Power Mac Center commences UpTrade to Uplift program

Premier Apple partner Power Mac Center in partnership with the Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation is launching its UpTrade program to provide customers an opportunity to help fellow Filipinos in need. In turn, those who will donate old devices will get corresponding discounts on their next iPhone purchase. This initiative is part of PMC’s 26th anniversary celebration this 2020, which focuses on helping those who have been affected by the current health crisis and highlights the resilience, courage, and strength of Filipinos.

According to official figures, there are 21.7M students who enrolled for the upcoming school year and only a little over 500,000 electronic devices available to lend to teachers and public school students.

Those willing to help by participating in PMC’s UpTrade to Uplift program can donate any working MacBook or smartphone or tablet of any brand but it must have no screen damage and have properly functioning speakers and complete accessories such as chargers and charging cables. All devices donated will be given to deserving schools in need through the Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation.

Initially known to provide boats to students in rural areas who had to swim to get to school, the Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation now gives school supplies and scholarships to deserving students andsupports communities through medical/dental missions and livelihood programs.

Device donations are accepted at all Power Mac Center stores until September 15, 2020 only. The discount value that donors get in return depends on the iPhone model that they plan to purchase. The corresponding discounts are as follows:

Only one device donation is eligible for a discount, and the discount cannot be used to purchase other products or converted into cash, loyalty points, and services. The discount offer is valid on the day of the donation only. Other terms and conditions apply.

Established in 1994, Power Mac Center is a recognized Apple Premium Reseller, Authorized Education Reseller, Apple Authorized Training Provider, and Apple Authorized Service Provider in the Philippines. The company has grown to over 50 branches nationwide, becoming a reliable retail shop and service provider of Apple products to Filipinos.
