MANILA, Philippines –  As the popular quote goes, “Friends are the family you choose.” 

Like family, friends lift you up when you’re down, support you, and are there not only for the good times but also for every time you need a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on.

Though it might seem simple, friendships can become the building blocks to a more peaceful and compassionate society.

On July 30, we’ll be celebrating International Friendship Day, an initiative spearheaded by the United Nations. On this day, take the time off your busy schedule to send a message to your best buds to show that they’re appreciated.

And while no tangible gift could ever sufficiently equal any friendship, a token that’s simple but well thought out can also easily become a meaningful symbol for it.

Below, we listed down ideas for little gifts that you can give to your best buddies that fit their interests and personalities.
