Andrew Brooking's Birthday Fundraising

PLEASE NO PRESENTS, IF YOU FEEL INCLINED TO GIVE SOMETHING, PLEASE DONATE TO MY FAVOURITE CHARITY,
THE BOHOLISLAND PROJECT INC.

Dear Andrew,                                                                                                                                    

It has never crossed my mind that an event mainly concerned with the consumption of excess alcohol will help provide this family a decent place to live that they deserve. Well done mate! And what a gift, just in time for Christmas and the coming New Year!

On behalf of The Bohol Island Project, we thank You & Marthe, your families, your great circle of friends and our workmates at Birzulis Associates, for all the generosity and support. In our own small way we have made a big difference to peoples lives.

Thanks again Andrew, and truly wishing you all the best!!!

Ruben

Thanks to the Dobroyd Point Bayrun Committee

Thanks to Michael Grogan for facilitating the handing over of surplus singlets and t-shirts from the Dobroyd Point Bayrun Committee to The Bohol Island Project to be put to good use.

We are doing our best to give these shirts to the right people. We have kept a few for our construction crew as some sort of uniform when building our houses. Garan and Leclec (the first two pictures) are two of our workers.

Our current three sponsored students have been given one each too. Jolina (third picture) is one of our sponsored students.

The rest are random acts of goodwill to the needy and the deserving.

There will be more pictures to come, as we are not finished yet. Please do have a good look at this website too. The little things we do, such as our housing for the homeless and scholarship program for disadvantaged young people might interest you. A helping hand is always welcome. Thanks.

Continuation of images below...

The first seven pictures are of 'working' students (a young person usually from disadvantaged backgrounds, that works for the school as an office worker, cleaner, security guard etc, in return for free school fees). Click on images to enlarge.

Thank you to Andrew & Marthe

Your support for the housing project from the very beginning is much appreciated. The ease you carried yourselves and the rapport you had with the workers and the locals back in the Philippines is truly remarkable.
