Heart-warming commercial shows appreciation for hard working dads
<p>Angel Soft teamed up with ad agency Deutsch to create a touching commercial showcasing appreciation for hardworking dads.</p>
<p>In the touching tribute, we meet Melquiades Rayos, a widower who travelled to the United States from the Philippines to provide for his nine kids. Eight of them are still in the Philippines, some of whom are still in school. Rayos' mother-in-law is their caretaker while he works thousands of miles away.</p>
<p>"All the money I make here I send to my kids so they can go to school, and have food and medicine," Rayos said.</p>
<p>The commercial is part of the company's "Be Soft. Be Strong" campaign and has been released in accordance with United States father’s day celebrations, that take place in June. As a sign of appreciation, Angel Soft gave Melquiades and his daughter plane tickets to the Philippines so they can celebrate Father's Day together with the rest of their family. Watch his incredible story in the video above.</p>
