One of the major beneficiaries of our solicitation efforts from advertisers for our Souvenir Program is St. Gemma's Orphanage which shelters, feeds, clothes, and sends to school wards aging from 2 - 16 years old.
Sonia Garcia-Lauzon and the rest of the Girls Alumni core group packed gift-bags of personal necessities for each ward. Batch '73 distributed these to the wards. One boy upon opening his gift-bag cried out: Yay! Now I have briefs!
Bong Cruz brought a big box of used clothing while Kristan Bookstore donated school supplies. A 25-kilo bag of rice was also given to the Orphanage.
Packed lunchboxes filled with spaghetti and fried chicken and fruit juices were also given to the kids. Our batchmates also helped feed the children.
St. Gemma's directress, Ate Paz Salazar thanked Batch '73 profusely for the assistance extended to the orphanage.
