Books from UNIFFIED

Many thanks to Unified Federation of FilAm Educators of New York for giving books to our library projects here in Capiz. We would also like to thank Nieva Q. Burdick for coordinating the shipment. These books will be distributed to various school libraries, a day care center at a firehouse and our Little Library.

At Bagacay ES in Pan-ay

 

Bagacay Elementary School 

Today BalayniCharie gave school supplies to the students at Bagacay ES. It was heartwarming to see the children jump up and down when they saw us entering their school grounds. 115 children are enrolled at the school. We distributed notebooks and pencils or pens. Some children received backpacks during the raffle draw. Thanks to Diane and Mon Acas for donating the backpacks. 

BalayniCharie is celebrating its 20th year of service to the children in Capiz.

Two Schools in President Roxas

Pondol ES

Continuing with our 20th year anniversary and our goal to reach 20 schools and organizations (20/20) to celebrate this milestone, BalayniCharie spent the day at two schools in President Roxas, Pondol Elem School with 68 students and at Aranguel Elem School with 121 children. Many thanks to Lourdes Bereber for coordinating this event and to our generous sponsors, Diane and Mon Acas and Selma Villagracia Templanza. The children were so happy to receive their school supplies especially the dental/personal kits and the backpacks.
