PART 1: OCTOBER 4, 2015
The kids @ Bahay Aruga receive free treatments such as chemotheraphy & radiotheraphy from the Philippine General Hospital. Since most of them come from poor families from the provinces, they do not have the financial resources to stay in Manila during the duration of their treatments. Bahay Aruga fulfill that important need for them. While in the shelter, they go regularly to the hospital for their treatments and stay in the shelter during the duration.
The Little Swallow brought foods for 50 people, drinks, biscuits in pails, etc.
During this visit/event, the Great Maestro Fernando Cena and his Team also conducted his free art workshops for the kids–something that he has been doing for many years.
The volunteers from TLSI came from HanCole. Some few volunteers and friends of TLSI came along as well. Rommel who brought along his family gave toys and clothes to the kids.
