SAMASKOM and other orgs @ Bahay Pag-ibig
On December 17, SAMASKOM, together with the English Club, the faculty from the Dept. of English & Comm., and the faculty from the Dept. of Math & Physics, went to Bahay Pag-ibig for a short community extension program.
Bahay Pag-Ibig houses 70 old people (50 female and 20 male) who no longer have relatives who can take care of them. They were already in the hall when we arrived. After giving all our donations (powdered milk and choco, canned goods, etc.) to the Director's office, we started with the program.
Leonard Grape served as the emcee for the program. Hazzel Dumandan rendered a few songs for them. And with Leo's cue, all the students who were with us entertained the "lolo" and "lola" with songs.
Aside from the donations we left at the office, we also wrapped gifts for each of them. Thanks to all the SAMASKOM members and CAS Ideas staff who donated powder, towel, comb, and soap. We wrapped them and gave them as individual gifts.
The officers and members of the English Club also prepared food for the event -- we served pansit and juice during the program. All of us, students, teachers, and even our dean and assistant dean served them with the food.
Thanks to all the following SAMASKOM members and officers who were with us: Pam, Paul, Leo, Fateem, Andrei, Cris, Kring, Elaine, and Robert. (Did I miss anyone?)
Thanks to the faculty members from the English & Comm. department: Mr. Dennis Infante (Chair), Ms Josie Cunanan (immediate past Chair) Dr. Linny Sialongo, Ms May Cayanan, Mrs. Doty Macaranas, Ms Remy Janda, Ms Michelle Concepcion, Mr. Jojo Dingal, Mr. Arnold Colle, and Mr. Robert Guzman.
Thanks to our Assistant Dean, Dr. Elvie Balinas, and of course to our Dean, Dr. Malay Dizon!
