Isang Bata's STORY THERAPY Part 2

These are pictures from Isang Bata's Story Therapy Part 2 which happened on Christmas day at the Philippine Children's Medical Center in Quezon City.

The volunteer storytellers visited wards on the ground and second floors to tell stories to the patients. Everyone's favorite magician, Ton Delgado, also performed pocket magic shows in several wards. The children also received gifts: storybooks, fruits, toys, and more.

Isang Bata would like to thank May Tobias Papa, Irene Chia, Jes Aznar, Ton Delgado, Arlene Brosas of Akap Bata, Betty Uy-Regala, Opaline Santos, Justine Santos, Joanne Santos, Veronica Uy and Jojo Vitug together with their children Tring, Tyago and Kulas, Raffy Lerma of PDI, Jennifer Bautista, Jubelle Bautista, Merdin Mojica, Daxx Bondoc and Tito Bobbi. Thank you also to Miss Grace, social worker from PCMC for making the necessary arrangements for the event.

Isang Bata's STORY THERAPY Part 1

These are pictures from Isang Bata's Story Therapy Part 1 which happened yesterday, December 7, at the Philippine Children's Medical Center in Quezon City. 1 magician, 7 storytellers, 1 photographer and 3 patrons/donors made 27 children (and their parents/caregivers) happy even for a short moment.

The volunteer storytellers visited 11 wards to tell stories to the patients. Everyone's favorite magician, Ton Delgado, also did the rounds of 4 wards to perform pocket magic shows. The children also received gifts: storybooks, fruits, toiletries, and more.
