CHRISTMAS IS A TIME FOR CHILDREN BY: Owen S. Bayog


Santa Claus has a nice idea for giving gifts and his visit – he does it once a year.  That is why there is a need for civic groups and individuals to fill in the days without Santa around.  (eyeblogphotos) Owen and Rem Bayog along with our daughter Cassie were invited to join a simple feeding activity of a group of Nurses in Bacolod dubbed as “N.U.R.S.E” Nurses Unite to Raise Awareness, Stop Hunger and Educate the youth.

On their second year as an organized group – NURSE choose Holy Infant Nursery Foundation as beneficiary to a feeding and gift giving session this year.  Nurses namely; Girlyn Rubi, Chesterlyn Labayen, Liza Mae Palacios, Mary Jo Cordova, Rea Jae Cruz and Hera Yales led the said activity.  The group prepared food for the children and toys as their early Christmas gifts.

Wide smiles on their faces as members of the group went around helping feed the kids and interact with them.  Everyone was also excited of the gift packs with toys that the group distributed after the humble meal.

Children all over the world are excited about the holidays, Christmas presents and being with their loved ones but how about these children who were left by their parents outside the gates of half-way houses?  Some of them are abandoned after birth at the hospital.  What is Christmas for them?
