A LETTER FROM RATED KOM: PISO MO, TSINELAS KO PROJECT
Greetings of Peace!
I am writing at your good office to make you aware that the Knights of Online Marketers (KOM) is planning to have its Second Installment of the “Rated KOM: Piso Mo, Tsinelas Ko” Project this coming January 01, 2016 (New Year’s Day) in Barangay Tibungco, Bunawan District, Davao City wherein we will donate pair of slippers to 100 kids of the barangay. The First Installment was held last May 10, 2015 (Mother’s Day Celebration) at Barangay Bago Gallera, Talomo District, Davao City and below are some of our memories (http://bit.ly/tsinelas).
Our advocacy-based project was also featured in Davao Today (http://bit.ly/DavaoToday) and Edge Davao (http://bit.ly/EdgeDavao) after I was given the privilege to have a Press Conference at Kapehan sa Dabaw in SM City last April 14, 2015.
In line with this advocacy, we are knocking at your good nature and ask for some assistance and support for this project. The cost of the sturdy and substantial slipper is 80.00 pesos per pair which will be hand-made produced by SME Roving Academy/DTI-trained PWDs of the Mindanao Association of Muslim with Disabilities, Inc. (MAMDI).
Donations may come in any amount as long as it enthusiastically given by your heart. As what Mother Theresa said “It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.”
Thank you very much and Merry Christmas! God bless you always
