Children's Day

Following a successful Back to School Gift Giving Project last May 2013, we are pumped as we have another advocacy project for the orphans, the “Children's Day”.

Fun Day highlights three different orphanages in the city namely Balay Pasilungan (located at Bankerohan, Davao City), Padre Pio’s Home for Children, and Providence Home of St. Joseph (both located at Tugbok, Davao City). These three orphanages provide the orphans their basic needs such as shelter, food, clothing, health care and quality education that prepares them to have productive and self-sufficient lives.

Together with Behind the Rolling Chair Volunteers are other partners who willingly accept the invitation to take part in this noble act. This is an event that showcase and enhance the talents of our orphans, let them have fun, and as well as for them to socialize with other children. We prepare different activities for the kids and invited performers/artists to inspire and let kids realize their own talents.

KADAYAWAN 2013

Kadayawan is derived from the Mandaya word "madayaw" which means, a warm and friendly greeting used to explain a thing that is valuable, superior, good, or profitable. Kadayawan sa Davao is a yearly event held every 3rd week of August. It is a celebration of bountiful harvest, wealth of culture and serenity of living.

This year's Kadayawan Festival is with the theme "Pagpaseguro sa Makanunayong Kaayo". As always, Behind the Rolling Chair has been participating to Kadayawan activities like Indak-indak and here's my captured moments of the said event.
