Through the online fundraising concert via FB live streamed on Cowrie Island’s FB page, which featured local musicians and artists, the groups along Palawan Chamber of Commerce, Palawan Tourism Council and JCI Puerto Princesa Kiao were able to raise funds for the elderly that they used to buy food packs for the senior citizens.
On April 12, the organizations distributed 153 food packs to the indigent senior citizens of Bucana, Brgy. Matahimik Puerto Princesa city.
They unanimously chose the elderly of the said barangay as per recommendation of the Brgy. Captain Ryan Abueme.
They are also in search for the next beneficiaries for the coming days and were inspired by the President and Chief Executive Officer of San Miguel Corp., Ramon Ang.
“We are inspired sa sinabi ni G.Ramon Ang ng San Miguel Corporation… Hindi tayo tumitigil kung paano tayo makakatulong, kaya’t sa munti naming paraan kami ay gumagawa upang makatulong sa abot ng aming makakaya,” Palawan Chamber of Commerce President Jeffrey Armedilla said.
