Project Report | Dec 8, 2015
A Father's Pride

By Gigo Alampay | Executive Director, CANVAS

"My daughter's a fighter."
"My daughter's a fighter."

We went to the cancer ward of the Philippine Children's Medical Center (PCMC) this morning to give away our books. We brought along our resident caricaturist, Bobbi Jolbitado, and gave his art as our Christmas gift to the kids and their parents. This man asked Bobbi to portray his daughter as a warrior because she's a fighter. 

We thought we'd share this heartwarming moment with all of you.

You should also know that we gave 500 copies of our latest children's book "Inang Kalikasan's (Mother Nature's) Bad Hair Day" to the PCMC for their outreach activities this Christmas Season.

Thank you for your continuing support!
