(Disclaimer: As per request from the orphanage, I will only post pics that will not show the children's faces for security reasons.)
It's been a while since last joined the last EB of Avanza Club Pilipinas. When I checked the FB page of the club, the heads of the club had posted the details of the first EB of the club for this year and decided to help the children of Hospicio de San Jose. Some of the members of the club even brought their children for this event to mingle with the children in the orphanage. That is why the owners of the Avanza are mostly have families already.
As we arrived at the orphanage site, the place is so big and the location itself is along the Pasig River (landmark is at the Ayala Bridge).

We prepared to unload the things that we will be given to the children like used toys, medicines, school supplies, sacks of rice and so much more.

While preparing for the things to set-up, the children were starting to arrive. After a few minutes, the program has started. The children performed some song numbers and even danced. Very talented indeed.

We were touched with their talents that they have shown to us and these children, mostly abandoned, are quite lucky as they are living better than they were just roaming along the streets. That is why we are giving these things to make the children very happy. It makes your feeling very light if you are helping, in any way, whether if it is big or small things that you will give to those in need.
Being in a club is not just for yourself and just among the members, it's also giving back to others by helping, sharing, and giving what we have to give their needs.
