Group Lunch!

The yummiest & cutest Mango cake ever!

Of course, the group stopped by Old Spaghetti House to have some time to chat, laugh (and cry?) together!

Donation Drive! (+ Raffle!)

And the most important part of all was the group gathering to drop and pack their donations for the victims of the CDO/Iligan flashflood victims! A total of almost P27,000.00 worth of cash has been raised and converted into relief goods: 20 5-gallon jugs of water supply, groceries, canned goods, basic clothing, etc plus the generous donations in kind (clothes, rice, etc) from the volunteer archies that filled a total of 7 boxes containing goods for 50 families have made this event MORE than a success! All these donations have been sent to the GMA Kapuso Foundation.

The group would also like to mention Ilumina Water Filling for the free delivery of water to GMA; and One Gateway Place admin especially to Mr AJ Bartolome, for the free use of the function room.

Big, big, big hugs to ARCH and the Council of Elders  for organizing these activities to make our celebration of David’s 21st birthday TRULY COUNT.

DAVID WOULD BE VERY PROUD OF YOU, GUYS!

Bataan Shipping and Engineering Company, more popularly known as BASECO, is one of the poorest community in Metro Manila. Last Sunday, June 26th, the Rotary Club of Manila District 3810, in coordination with Archuleta Philippines, distributed bags, clothes and school supplies carrying out the BACK TO SCHOOL PROECT to 100 kids in this area.

Here are some of the pictures (taken by @FerjiPerj):

This is actually the 3rd outreach activity we’ve done, as far as I can recall. The first one was with Virlanie Foundation (Marco Polo Home in Makati) on March 29, 2009 (read here for details) and second one was after the Ondoy calamity, at the GMA Kapuso Foundation on October 4, 2009.

Thank you for all those who sent in their donations, especially Naree, Tita Bess and Tita Ditas.

BUMP!

UPDATE!

It’s been two years since Angels Reaching Out was launched. The project was initiated by Naree and, as always, we are proud to be part of it. David Archuleta’s generosity, kindness humility and compassion have inspired us all to be the best person we can be–to be part of the change we have been longing for. Well, change does not only begin with ourselves but also includes how we can help change beyond our own personal sphere–that is, the society. How we, as individuals, can make society a better place for everyone–With this, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

REACH OUT. MAKE A DIFFERENCE. DONATE.

Since June marks the “Back-To-School” month, it is very timely to have a Back-To-School Project, Pinoy Archies style! The project aims to help the less fortunate children and promote the importance of education. We know what the state of our country is in at the moment and we know that a lot of people need help–OUR HELP. The government alone cannot do everything. They need our help. Little things such as this will greatly help our countrymen. More than education, they need basic commodities and surely, we can give them that. Thus, we appeal to your generosity, kindness and compassion to give whatever you can to help our fellow Filipinos–especially children. They are the future of this country. We need to help them. Let us all build a better society. WE CAN IF WE WANT TO.

Let us all keep in mind what @DavidArchie once said:

“I always think about how those donations will help out, even if it’s not a huge contribution. That small amount can help change someone’s life one way or another, and just thinking about it gives me the chills.”

For now, we will be accepting donations in kind–old clothes, school bags, notebooks, pens, pencils, papers, books, and many others. Deadline for donations will be on May 30, 2011. Drop off points will be @nareejo’s clinics: Quezon City, Fort Bonifacio, Makati, and Manila. We will be updating you re: the specific recipient of the donations.

Archies outside Metro Manila:

For those not in Manila, you can have a similar project with your fellow Archies in your area. You can make donations to the church or any foundation in your locality and send us pictures of you donating. We will be compiling your photos/activity here.

Just a little thought for you, Pinoy Archie fans…

HELP. DONATE. MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

Thanks!

As I was watching the video posted yesterday about the Rising Star Outreach program, I realized that the fulfillment of being a David Archuleta fan is not measured in the number of concerts, pictures, items that he/she attended, shot or gained with his Idol, but in the many ways of sharing David’s vision in spreading his heart desires.

I was moved by his unwavering kindness in helping other’s lives. Dedicating fractions of what he has brought smiles to people in need. Smiles that brought light to those darkened corners of people’s hearts. People who lost hope then, but now regained with strong foundations.

The video below was inspired by a humble angel, who from the heavens, came down to earth, to reach out his hands, even to the far corners of the world…to touch a thousand lives.

I am definitely proud to spread my wings and say that I’m an ArchAngel! I am not ashamed of it!

David you are an ICON of kindness. David, you are a HERO!

Angels Reaching Out 1.

March 29, 2009 – The Pinoy Archangels visited one of Virlanie Foundation’s homes, the Marco Polo Home, in Makati City. It is definitely one of the best experiences we ever had! Stay tuned for Naree’s post! I know she’ll be posting! Anyhow, here are the pictures from a memorable event! Hope you could join us in the future!
