The 2015 Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) showcased two orange supercars – a Jaguar F-Type and a Lexus RCF at the lobby entrance of the World Trade Center. The showcase was to show support for Epcalm Adult Leukemia Foundation of the Philippines, the only non-profit organization of its kind in the country.

As the foundation marks its 10th year this coming month, it partnered with MIAS to highlight its advocacy to create and raise awareness on adult leukemia to some 110,000 visitors who trekked to the annual motoring event. Orange is the globally designated advocacy color for leukemia, and having these orange sports cars strategically offers an attraction to car enthusiasts to learn more about the organization.
