We’re just better

A few of my friends have commented to me personally why “ang tyaga ko daw” maintaining this website. They think because very few make comments or even read it, it means not all of you are interested nor would want to be involved with what I or our batch are doing.

The more than 5 years I’ve been maintaining this website and the old one, meron naman naging resulta ang pagba-blog ko; highlighted with the grand reunion and the other mini-reunions we had, and of course, the scholarship project.

At some point medyo naging rough ang roads we traveled to get to where are now. We made “major major” problems during the whole process, and we might have made “major major” mistakes too but in the end, we are managing it pretty well.

Ngayon pa ba ako or tayo susuko?

If you notice, of all the very few batch website of SDA alumni, this is the only SDA batch website that I know of that still exist or at least has life.

Humihinga pa!

This isn’t to say that I am good.

Our batch is just better than them. :-)

Mañana or Not

Below is our scholarship project schedule timeline giving you an idea on critical dates we all should be aware of.

Please click on the image below to get a full view.
You all have received the latest fund update and quite easily you can tell some of us are a little behind in their pledge payments, hence we are short of our target goal.

I can only hope that all of you who have not made their pledge payments are just inhibiting the old “Mañana” habit, exercising their procrastinating style so to speak, and not for any other reasons.

Please continue to support our effort to make a difference in the lives of underprivileged kids like Patrick and Angelyn. Below are details of our SDA Batch ’78 bank account:

Banco de Oro
SM City Bicutan Branch
Dona Soledad Ave corner West Service Road
Bicutan, Paranaque City 1700

Account Name: St. Dominic Academy Batch ’78 Alumni Association, Inc.
Peso Account No: 152-801-2794

OR personally deliver your donations to Eva Fajardo/Paperbox Store/Rowena Castillo.

Please make sure to clearly indicate your intention that the donation is meant for this particular scholarship project.

More importantly, always obtain a receipt for all your donations. Also, notify us of your payment via email at ediboyd@yahoo.com or egfajardo61@yahoo.com.

I thank you all in advance for understanding my concerns. I sure hope all is well with you and family.
