Cebu Bloggers Society’s Caroling and Gift Giving Event for Christmas
Christmas is just around the corner, and instead of having a party for ourselves, the Cebu Bloggers Society has an event at hand to share the joys to those who most need it. 
Christmas is a time for joyful celebrations among friends and families. But how can one celebrate Christmas if he has recently experienced a heartbreaking event? Would he even be able to smile at a crowd?
On the first week of November this year, 213 families were struck by a fire accident in Barangay Duljo-Fatima, Cebu City. They lost their homes and most of what they own. Until now, those families are struggling to bring back the lives they once had.
To extend some help, the Cebu Bloggers Society, Inc. is going to hold a caroling and gift giving event this coming December 19, 2010 at 4pm onwards. Fifty families who were greatly affected by the calamity (based on the survey done by a DSWD volunteer) are selected and gathered at the barangay’s basketball court, and the band Bethany will be serenading them with Christmas songs. Donations such as rice, canned goods, noodles, and Christmas goodies for the children will then be distributed to the selected families. This is done in the hope of bringing the smiles back to the faces of the fire victims.
We’re still accepting donations such as used clothings, supplies, or the like (until December 17, 2010). For your convenience, we will be collecting your donations at a specific drop off point — at Oh! Bern Net Café and Snack Bar, 95 Osmena Boulevard, Cebu City (across CAP Theater). Kindly look for Bjorn Bernales or SMS 09227747961.
We’d like to thank the following sponsors for their donations and contributions to this event:

Please support this endeavor! We’d all want everyone to be happy this Christmas.
