Dec 5 - Christmas Party for the orphans (New Faith Family Children's Home, Cainta, Rizal) (Project of Chris Daniel Nabiong)
Around 30 kids were made happy that Sunday afternoon. Fun games were played by the kids & the kids at heart!
After racing, stop-dancing and painting pictures, the children munched on burgers and spaghetti.
Aside from receiving Christmas gifts, they felt familial love from the Ates and Kuyas who spent the afternoon with them.

Dec 11 - Turn over of Php 10,000 donation (Php 5,000 each) to the PGH Medical Foundation and Sagip Buhay Medical Foundation / Visit & Gift-giving to the children at the PGH Pediatric Ward. (Project of a group of college friends)
Contributions of friends plus Christmas Three allocation for this project paved the way for the Php 10,000 total donations to the two PGH-based foundations. Special thanks to Sir Andy of the PGH Medical Foundation and to Dr. Ruter Maralit of the Sagip Buhay Medical Foundation.
Disclaimer: Receipts were issued under the name of the check account holder but acknowledgements are rightfully given to all donors.
The next stop was at the pediatric ward, where 45 kids and teens were confined. No pictures were taken during the visit to the pediatric ward as such is prohibited in the hospital. The common illnesses of the kids were meningitis, hydrocephalus and brain tumors. These children, at a very young age lost their sight, their ability to speak and have spent their days in the hospital instead of going to school. By giving story books, the parent to child bonding is reinforced. Christmas gifts and loot bags were also distributed.
Special thanks to April Joy Cabansag, Melissa Anne Martin & Nerisse Irene Sebastian who joined the visit and also made extra in-kind donations (such as gifts & storybooks).
