November 26,2011 after that sad moments at National Children's Hospital when a child died after the group gave them treats and surprises, we still have to get on positive smiles to the children. On that afternoon, we were scheduled also to meet the kids at Bahay Pag Asa located at Better living Subd. Paranaque City.

We were late from expected time of arrival but the kids were all there and still very expectant and very eager to wait for us. Of course the group would not want to dissapoint them and leave them unhappy,so the group started the party sooner by doing games. All kids wants to participate specially when they realize they were lots of prizes at stake. Our energetic Chummy chum mascot also delighted them as he danced for them. It was a very long day and a very luscious spaghetti and cake popcorn and cotton candy completed the day as if were served almost after the gift giving by Ms.Cynthia.

Rotaract Laguna Trick or Treat







 Morning of  October  29, 2011. Rotaract Laguna Chapter invited Chummy Chum to help them bring smiles to the almost 100 underprivileged kids invited to come to the venue.  But before that, both  parties did not know whether we could make it to their program due to the Chummy Chum van needing to be repaired. Rotaract was so accommodating to pick us up, and even asking help from the vice mayor of that Laguna city to commute and take care of our things. =)  At last,  Chummy Chum was not deterred to bring smiles to the kids.

Sarnelli Center Celebrates Children’s Month


 After the event in Concordia, we went  to the Sarnelli Center for street children where nearly 49 kids came to celebrate with us; a lot of them came from the nearby  Baclaran community where some kids were street vendors. It was Children’s Month and we wanted to treat the kids to a movie at the Baclaran Redemptorist Church compound while letting them enjoy eat the popcorn we prepared just for them.
 The movie shown was about kids working hard to buy a bike, but unfortunately somebody always needed their help, hence, making them lose the money they kept saving. The end was heartwarming as they got the bike after all—with the help of the very people they helped. 
 The movie showed the children an example of the proverbial “What you sow, you reap.” After the movie we had a roll call- calling the names of the kid participants so they can get Chummy Chum freebies, and boy did we see their eyes glow! All of them got freebies and went home with big, big smiles. =D
