[edit] One step towards a unified global outreach – the Filipino Strength

"One step towards a unified global outreach – the Filipino Strength" was the theme of the Dental Outreach and On-the-Spot painting contest last November 30, 2007 at the grounds of the Philippine School (Bahrain). The Principal, Dr. Geronimo R. Salem shared his thoughts about the true meaning of outreach by the example of the organizers who were able to spend their precious time and efforts on such activities that benefit the majority of people in all walks of life and to reach out to their "Kababayans" even in a very simple way.

The Triskelions of the TI-Bahrain Coordinating Council would like to congratulate all those who participated in the contest especially the winners and would like to mention in grateful acknowledgement the participation of the Judges, parents, students, Gulf Photographers Network, and the support of our sponsors such as Al Abraaj Restaurant and volunteer dentists Dr. Liza Siwa and Dr. Sonny Dipasupil who are still willing to share and care for the next outreach programs in development.

This event has been a part of the expanded activities of the Triskelion International – Kingdom of Bahrain that started with a Medical Mission at the premises of the POLO/OWWA, Philippine Embassy(Bahrain) last November 9, 2007 and will culminate with a film showing of "Care Home" (www.carehomethemovie.com) next year.

Moreover, a concert with a cause entitled: "Pinoy Bands in Concert 2007" will be held on December 16, 2007 at the poolside of the Delmon International Hotel, Manama, Bahrain.

A meeting was held last Nov.30, 2007 between the Filipino Bands and the Organizers in collaboration with the Philippine Embassy, ANCOP-GK, and the Caravan Group of Hotels and it was agreed that a set of 8 Filipino Bands from different Hotels will perform on this charity event. Posters were distributed and tickets will be available through the bands as follows: Kaktooz Band of Adhari Hotel, Prestige Band of Gulf Hotel, Hip2Soul Band of Ramee International Hotel, Black Dyke Band of Aradous Hotel, High Intenz Band of Windsor Tower Hotel, Immerge Band of Club F1, and Circa5 Band from Delmon Hotel.

This is a project of the Tau Gamma Sigma of the TI-Bahrain in order to gather all Filipinos and other nationalities to support the "Tuloy Aral Program" of the OWWA and free housing/renovations for the poor families in the Philippines initiative of ANCOP-Gawad Kalinga (Bahrain). This is also extended to support the Triskelion Charity Fund. For more information, please contact Sis. Bheng @ 39191372, Sis. Mahalina @ 36305711, or Sis.
