October 22, 2010 was truly a special day for special kids at the Stimulation and Therapy Activity Center (STAC) of Breaking Barriers for Children (BBC) located at Mactan, Lapu-Lapu City. Cousins TY BUCK, NATHAN VILLAR, ISAIAH VILLAR, and GEORGE PACCERELLI celebrated their birthdays at BBC in conjunction with STAC's Children's Month and United Nations Organization (UNO) celebration. These cousins have always been supportive of Pusong Pinoy projects donating their own books, clothes, and toys for our cause, so it was no surprise when they celebrated their birthdays the Pusong Pinoy way. Thank you so much, Junior Heroes!
The celebration started with a parade of BBC kids wearing costumes of the country they represent as they rode on tricycles around town. The parade ended at STAC where the kids were treated with food, drinks, and treats. This is truly a birthday our Junior PP Heroes will never forget!
The Breaking Barriers for Children (BBC) Project is a joint initiative of the Katipunan ng Maykapansanan sa Pilipinas, Inc. (KAMPI) and the Danish Society of Polio and Accident victims (PTU). BBC provides free physical and social rehabilitation, stimulation activities, and pre-school training to poor children with disabilities ages 0 to 14 years old.
Special thanks to LOUELLA MATIDIOS of STAC for coordinating this event with Pusong Pinoy, and most especially to the staff of STAC for making this event a success.
