Before I start to share my story, I would like to thank Batang Yagit for this eye opener story sharing, that somehow in my life I had done something good especially before this year ends that I could share to everyone.
I have been once a member of this small foundation in Angeles City named Filanese Group (Filipino - Japanese Organization) that help less fortunate but smart and talented kids. I were just in Elementary back then but everything they taught me were still fresh in my mind and I believe they are the reason for what I am now.
Since I am working now and this month is Christmas I decided to call the attention of all the former members of the organization and requested them to share some of their earnings so that we could buy a new sound system for the Filanese Christmas Party, with this we could somehow repay the goodness that the organization did for us during our elementary days. God was really good and everything works just like how I plan. From the effort of the former members of the organization we manage to raise money and have the organization their new sound system.
I guess this was pretty much significant event that happen in my life and I could not ask for more this 2010, aside from the spirit of sharing I manage to see my friends in the organization after the long years that we don't have communication. Thanks to Facebook for helping me find them.
And by the way we also made a simple presentation for their Christmas Party and here's the video:
And that sums up my story, I hope that in my simple ways I had inspire others. By the way thanks to Jehzeel Laurente for sponsoring Batang Yagit Christmas Giveaway.
