Give Blood, Save A Life: A Community Service Project

On 23 November 2009, the Masigasigs were invited to participate in a community service project dubbed as "Give Blood, Save A Life". The project was initiated by PLDT-Smart in Lucena City in cooperation with the Philippine National Red Cross. The invitation for the Masigasigs to participate in the activity came from Ms. Chiela Nosce-Marquez of the PLDT-Smart Lucena Experience Center. A total of 3,500 cc of blood were given by the Masigasigs. Truly a fulfilling activity. Keep it up Masigasigs.

 

 

Corporal Cherelyn Sabado undertake screening tests prior to her blood donation.

 

 

 

Sir do you think I can still give another 500cc?

(Kaya mo yan, ang laki mo.)

 

 

 

Ms Chiela, ano po ba problema ni Bullet? Baka gusto niya 1000cc i donate niya.

 

 

Nice picture.. Next time Ma'am, sa tangke naman po kayo sasakay.

Don Bosco College of Makati Students Visit 4LAB

Elementary students of Don Bosco College of Makati, together with  their "Yayas", visited the Headquarters of the 4th Light Armor Battalion. Accompanied by the Commander of Southern Luzon Command, Lt Gen Roland M Detabali AFP, the students were eager ly met by the Masigasigs.

With an enthusiastic look in their eyes, the students took the opportunity to board the armor vehicles. Then they were also treated with a joy ride within the camp.

 Everybody seems to be very happy after their first ride in an armor vehicle.

A snack (boiled bananas and softdrinks) was also prepared for them. One of the students even mentioned that it was the sweetest banana he ever tasted. Thatcompleted the day of the Masigasigs.
