Happy Birthday, Teacher Jedda!

Project Pearls After School Program

March 26, 2017

Sunday

Helping Land, Tondo, Manila, Philippines

 

“Indeed, the best way to celebrate my birthday is with the Project Pearls’ kids and volunteers. My every Sunday will not be completed without spending it with the kids in Helping Land.”

–Ate Jedda Punzalan, Project Pearls volunteer since 2012.

Aside from our usual feeding and mentoring activity, we also had a happy time for some parlor games with prizes.

Why?

 

Because this day was a little bit extra special not only for the PEARLS children but for our After School Program coordinator as well. As we all know, she’s Volunteer-Teacher or Ate Jedda Punzalan! And it’s her birthday!

For us in Project Pearls, Teacher Jedda is everyone’s mentor, leader and cheerleader as well and confidante. Her passion to make this world better for the poor and for the least is so inspiring.

God bless you more and may you continue being a role model, a strict yet very approachable and loving Ate to all.

As you said, the best way to celebrate your birthday is with us in Project Pearls, we are also glad that you chose to spend it with us.
