Filipino Fiesta!
Saturday 4th March 2018
The Community Centre was packed with 110 guests, and many helpers, making this fund-raising event a memorable occasion for all those involved. Enormous thanks go to our Filipino community for providing the food, entertainment and decorating both halls so magnificently. The programme included a quiz, raffle, a video message from Fr Joe, a slide show of his mission, wonderful Filipino food including a hog roast, photobooth and children's entertainment, traditional dancing, singing by Maria and Robert Akester, and a very popular karaoke session. The image links below tell much of the story.
As a result of everyone's efforts, a profit of £1,091 was raised on the day. A fantastic boost to the amount raised was obtained from one of our Filipino's company, Concerto Partners, who match-funded the profit with a donation of £1,000. All profits raised from this and other events will be sent to Fr Joe Cremona of St Catherine's to aid his programme of technical education.
