Sunday, April 1- Marietta, GA

NorthWest Philam Association of GA hosted its annual Easter Family Picnic at Bells Ferry Park.  Families enjoyed a wide variety of traditional Filipino as well as non-Filipino food.  Many young children enjoyed the easter egg hunt, parlor games and treats organized by the committee.  

On its 5th year supporting the initiative of Galing Foundation, Inc. the members of the association donated brand new 22 notebooks, 5,000 pcs. of cardstock sheets, 50 books, 226 pcs. of pencils, 150 pens, 246 pcs. eraser and a box of 48 pc. crayon.

"On behalf of Galing Foundation, Inc. we wish to thank each and every member of NorthWest Phil-Am Association of GA, Ms. May Kinnunen, president and Ms. Esther Wilson, founder for your unending support through the years (since 2008). With your generosity and compassion towards the growing number of Filipino indigent children you have helped us reach out to them and raise awareness on the importance of literacy-a great avenue towards self empowerment. May the Lord continue to bless you all as you continue to bless others. Maraming Salamat Po!"- Toni D. Luetgers
