Count Me In Event at Trinoma Activity Center

Every child has the right to proper education, nutrition and healthy living. I for one can attest the hard work of my parents to send me off to a proper school until I graduate and have a job that pays me well.

Wall of Commitment

With World Vision Philippines, their advocacy aims to send a child in need to a proper school and take care of their health together with his/her family. Last June 8, Trinoma Activity Center was filled with stars, fun and music during the “COUNT ME IN” event that commits to reach 11,000 beneficiaries for the year 2011.

Chris Tiu says he's sponsoring 12 kids :)

COUNT ME IN paves way to sponsor a child for Php600 a month or Php20 a day. (Php7,200 annually). Instead of spending our money to our indulgences, why not pool your money to the monthly pledge and give a child the future he/she deserves? With World Vision, every peso is spent well and will even make a difference for a child that you will sponsor.

Jan Marini and Gerald Pizarraz's Family supports 2 kids

During the event, stars like Christine Bersola-Babao, Julius Babao, Danica Sotto, Marc Pingris, Cristalle Belo, Jan Marini, Gerald Pizarras, Krissy and Erica, Chris Tiu and World Vision Ambassador, Nikki Gil graced the occasion. Their encouragement means to gather 11,000 sponsors to give these children a better life.
