Year 2009 Quick Review

As members of SDA Batch ’78 (automatic or honorary), we have a lot to be proud of and be thankful for. Dami nating accomplishments as a group for this year 2009.

First, we are now considered a legal entity with the successful SEC registration of our batch name. Cheers to St. Dominic Academy Batch 78 Alumni Association, Inc. (aka SDA Batch '78)

Meron na rin tayong bank account sa BDO under the same legal entity name we established thru SEC.

We also have a good accounting system for our batch funds. Every cent is accounted for and reported to all on a monthly basis.

We have full transparency in everything that we do, available for perusal on our website and thru sometimes annoying emails I sent y’all. :-) We’re open 24/7 for scrutiny, if one wishes to probe of our operations.

Another big thing is the scholarship project I proposed earlier. It is moving forward, thanks to you!

Understandably, not everyone agreed to the proposal...or some just don’t see it as a priority for them...or perhaps some, even if they really want to, just don’t have the capacity to offer financial support at this time.

No problemo amigas, amigo!

Good thing is we have some loving peeps supporting the scholarship project, really putting their money where their mouth is, without hesitation. Some cutely doing it anonymously, mysteriously.;-)

And mind you, a few are even outside of our core group...special thanks to them...

...with a kiss! hehehe

Pero di pa huli ang lahat for those who wishes to be part and help make a dream come true for deserving night high school kids. We still badly need your support, financial or otherwise. Whatever help or support you can offer us...a cent, a prayer or something else, all very much appreciated!

I am confident the scholarship project will be a successful one...many thanks to all those who have already shown their supports and made their pledges! The project is moving the right direction folks...”oh thank you very much”, sabi nga ni Elvis. :-)

My only wish is for this coming year 2010 is that sana marami pang mag-participate para ma-expand natin ang scope ng scholarship project natin… or makagawa pa tayo ng iba pang projects...like my dream library. hehehe

More importantly, we have an open-door policy so anyone can ask questions and raise any concerns, if there’s any, about how we operate as a group. Always feel free to ask when you have questions or doubts. Nothing is personal here so don't hate my guts for being so uber-aggressive and pro-active; we all have the same goal. ;-)

So all of you give yourself a pat on the back, congratulate yourself for a job well done in 2009. You really just didn’t talk the talk, you actually walked the walk. Maraming Salamat Po!

Oh yeah, Happy 2010 nga pala! hehehe...Cheers to the new year!

“BDO” Account (Fund Status as of May 31, 2009)

The new bank account under our official SEC-registered name has been established. The “old” PNB account under Claire R & Eva F’s name is now officially closed and remaining balance has been transferred to the new BDO account.

Details of the new account are as follow:

Account Name: “St. Dominic Academy Batch ‘78 Alumni Association, Inc.”
Peso Checking Account Number: 152-8012-794
Bank Name & Address: Banco de Oro
SM City Bicutan Branch Banking
Dona Soledad Ave corner West Service Road
Bicutan, Paranaque City 1700

Account Signatories: Eva G. Fajardo and/or Edgardo David (with online access)

Also, contrary to what we initially thought of Php15,000, the required minimum initial deposit to open the new account is Php25,000.

Since we do not have enough funds to meet the minimum initial deposit requirement, I made an advance deposit of my pledge payment for the proposed scholarship project to help initiate opening of the new account. Hopefully, the time will come that my advance pledge payment will be apply to what it is intended for...send 2 kids to night high school...with all your help.

For more details of our account, please see “Batch ’78 Fund Update as of May 31, 2009” emailed to all.
