I hope this post can inform more people who have the capacity to help bring children to school. This is my Sis Medi's account.
Dear Colleagues & Friends,
We, the BBBS (Big Brother Big Sister) group, are currently organizing an outreach activity through sponsorship. The Big Brother Big Sister Outreach Program relies on donations and volunteers to bring much-needed school supplies to children in remote rural areas in the Philippines.
Through the BBBS, you have a chance to become a big brother or a big sister to a child thousands of kilometers away. For only Php300.00, you will be able to sponsor one studentÃÔ school set which contains the following items: 1 knapsack, 7 notebooks, 4 ball-point pens, 4 pencils, writing pads, crayons, sharpener and ruler.
BBBS is on its third year, owing its success to all donors and volunteers. With their generosity, BBBS has brought hope to 295 children of 6 schools in Itogon, Benguet in 2005 and 535 children of 6 schools in Lacub, Abra in 2006. This year we will be distributing school supplies at Tanudan Kalinga on May 26-27, with an initial target of 500 children.
I joined the group in 2006, volunteered in the distribution of school supplies and sponsored 1 child. I considered this as one of the noteworthy things I did last year & one of my greatest experience. This year IÃÎ proud to say that IÃÎ part of the Volunteers Committee :) IÃÎ saying this not to boast but to share with you the feeling of being of service to others, I canÃÕ explain it, I just feel it :)
If you could only have just time to join us, be a volunteer! see, feel & experience what IÃÎ saying. If you wish to join us in our goal but your schedule is really tight you may send in your pledges for one or more children now and weÃÍl just send you pictures and video clips on May 28 after the distribution, for you to see how far your helping hands can reach :)
Whether you want to be a volunteer or a sponsor or both, you may directly contact me through SMS (0921 7773267), or simply reply to this message, or call me at my office, 524 4611 loc 224.
You may also forward this message to your friends, relatives or colleagues.
