Last September 17, Isang Bata met with the 8 scholars, their parents and their teachers in Wawa National High School in Montalban, Rizal. We turned over the following:
1. 2 big packages of infant milk formula for the 7-month old baby of Mary Ann Casiple, mother of scholar Bernadette Casiple. Donation courtesy of Arlene Manas Callejo.
2. Packets of instant noodles for the 8 families, courtesy of Arlene Manas Callejo.
3. P500 cash to Apolonia Enriquez, mother of Ryan Enriquez, to cover for his transportation expenses for one (1) month. Amount donated by Lyli Eleuterio.
4. P1500 cash to Ma'am Ritchel Yorsua who will turn over the money to the adviser of scholar Bernadette Casiple. The money, from her sponsors Anj and Lit Onrubia, will be spent for Bernadette's educational needs for one month.
Ime talking to Ma'am Ritchel Yorsua about the Breakfast Project
Isang Bata also discussed updates with Ma'am Ritchel on the ongoing Breakfast Project where we feed 30 students a simple breakfast or snack every day so they won't have to come to class hungry. Prior to this, 11 kilos of milk/chocolate drink were donated, plus a big tub of bread spread, both of these from Peter Foo, P500 cash for soup (from Isang Bata's fund), and P1,000 cash for water and bread. Everything will be for a month's worth of breakfast/snack.
Ime discusses details of scholarship with parents of scholars.
That's Ryan Enriquez walking in front of me :)
Explaining the contents of the written agreement.
I also discussed the contents of the agreement with the parents and the students, and asked them to sign the documents. Copies will be sent to their respective sponsors. Isang Bata decided that the monthly allowances of the children should best be handled by their respective class advisers. School allowance will be given on a daily basis, and cost of projects will be taken from the amount. Should there be anything left at the end of each month, the money should be turned over to the scholar's family.
Giving them time to read everything, before signing.
Even the scholars needed to read and understand the contents of the document.
Details and more details. I wish it were simpler and easier.
Jes and I took Danilo and Samuel, together with their parents, to St. Luke's for the eye checkups of the two scholars. Samuel and Danilo are both partially blind. After the checkup, we had lunch with Samuel's sponsor, Mrs. Villaraza.
This is Mang Dante and his son, Danilo.
