By JCI Mem. Malou Paglinawan
The JCIP-Puerto Princesa Peacock is journeying to Sitio Labtay, Barangay Napsan on July 28, 2007 for a medical, dental and health care mission in cooperation with the Marine Battalion Landing Team 10 and Batch 6 of the Adventist Caregiver Class.
More than 1,000 patients are expected to benefit from the basic medical checkups, dental services, operation tuli (circumcision), blood smearing for malaria parasite, blood typing, blood sugar level reading, milk feeding for children beyond breastfeeding age, as well as lectures on the importance of calcium, breastfeeding, and infection control.
The strategies for the project were discussed on July 5 at a General Membership Meeting called by JCI Mem. Emilyn R. Bayna, the LOM president, at Neva’s Place. As agreed, a Bingo Serbisyo will be held on July 21 to help raise funds for the mission. Baby JC Cecille Fresnillo was chosen to chair the committee that shall handle the fund raising.
