The Feeding Program was a huge success!

We have catered to more than 600 street children/dwellers at A. Bonifacio Elementary School in the area of Buendia-FB Harrison St., Pasay City today Sunday, September 5 at 10 am-1pm.  Said occasion was attended and graced by Mayor Tony Calixto & Congresswoman Emi Calixto-Rubiano.  And, VW Bro Sixto Esquivias IV arrived to give support of the noble project.
The brethren of USS George Washington were in attendance headed by Bro EJ Angeles. At the GLP, VW Bro Manny Diesta cordially received the visiting brethren.

At 4pm, the brethren were fetched by a ferry from USS George Washington for a guided tour. Photos will be posted soon.

 Together brethren.

Kuyang & Brethren,

Indeed Kuya EJ was the moving spirit behind this project. We also thank the support of Pasay City in full force... that is under the leadership of Mayor Tony Calixto and the surprise visit of Congresswoman Emi Calixto-Rubiano. We did not expect it that big in its magnitude.

The brethren from NCR-G solidly supported it plus the brethren from other lodges in and around Metro Manila... We thank you for lending us your presence, for sparing time with us.

The brethren of USS George Washington promised us more projects to be jointly undertaken in the future... Kudos brethren of USS George Washington.
