Gift Giving at Bacoor Municipal Plaza

We were deadly tired but it was a memorable event for me.  I was with my brother JR on this event.  We joined thru KIDS Foundation, where we are a volunteer member.
As early as 4pm in the afternoon, the plaza was full.  It has a huge crowd that night.
With the join force of the Mayor's Office of Municipality of Bacoor and the KIDS Foundation volunteers, gifts were distributed to the less fortunate residents of Bacoor, Diether Ocampo's hometown, one of the Director of KIDS Foundation.  
Also on that event were the Sanguniang Bayan Members.
Diether was with Kris Aquino and Vice Ganda on the said event.  Baby James also participated on the gift giving.  And they were welcome by our beloved Mayor, Mayor Strike Revilla.
With the KIDS Foundation Volunteers, they distributed grocery items in Puregold shopping bags & SM Shopping Green bag. School supplies also given to the kids courtesy of Baby James "Bimby".
 
To participate in any of Outreach activity like these is a blessing for me for it always gave me the feeling of fulfillment.  I really wanted to help but I can not afford to give money nor in kinds.  And I believe that to share or to help doesn't need to contribute financially.  You may share your time & talent also.  And all I can share is my time and effort.

I feel blessed because I was given a chance to help in my own little way.  Not only that. I also gain more friends and meet different people.
Until next event with Bacoor kids on the 29th.

Simbang Gabi at the Sto Niño de Molino Parish

The traditional Novena to Nuestra Señora de Belen, or what we known as SIMBANG GABI had started.  My day one (day 1) I ma y say, was the most memorable and most fulfilling day.

I started my day by attending the 1st Simbang Gabi this year (2010).

Outside the church of Sto Niño de Molino, was decorated with Christmas lanterns and Christmas lights.
I was able to went home at around 5am and woke up at 7am to join KIDS Foundation for the Gift Giving Event at the Bacoor Municipal Hall.  It was a joint event by the office of Mayor Strike, KIDS Foundation with the participation of Ms. Kris Aquino, Baby James, Diether Ocampo & Vice Ganda.

With the said event, I met a lot of people and make friends with them. My brother JR, join us also and we were able to went home around 10pm.
