3rd & Final Remittance Report: Project Bayanihan Fund Drive for Ondoy Victims
4 October 2009
18 Comments
The Bayanihan for Ondoy Victims Fund Drive started with one email telling everybody in Barrio Siete that a strong typhoon is slapping our country silly. Most of our writers tuned into different websites and video channels. Our hearts were torn apart, our tears flowed as our fellow Filipinos feared for their safety and lives.
More to come… but for now, let me finish my compliance and reporting to all of you…
Ladies & Gentlemen, your boring Accountant is back with my 3rd and Final Report. I’d like to thank mon ami Joey Brion of Philadelphia for his final “voluntary” donation (dinala ko lang naman sa sigaw, mura, threats and intimidation! hehehe!). Here’s the final report ladies, gentlemen and some of us in betweens…

Yay! Bakit ganito ang report? Napaka detalye at masyadong transparent! Wahahahaha Go Barrio Siete!!!
Thank you to all to those who trusted Barrio Siete and gave their share!
there really is nothing rocket science about funds reporting or even “that reporting” that we are talking about in the “side bar”. if people are true with their genuine intent – then transparency is not an issue and they will put it out there.
similarly, we are just a conduit of funds here. those are not ours and it’s really upon us to set the standards for them to either follow or excel. i wish they learned something from our very, very simple and transparent reporting.
TAMA NA YONG PLEASE “PROVIDE US SOME REASONS WHY”.
ito ang dapat na reporting sa mga “famous” tallying ng alam-nyo-na-hong mga awards.
Your decision Reynz to give a detailed accounting is great! Sana may matutunan ang ilan sa atin, pagdating sa accountability sa aktibidades at paramulyas sa blogosphere.
which is what we expected from THESE SO CALLED “PRESTIGIOUS” BLOG AWARDING CHORVA kuno. “they are they are” lang kasi ang mga yan.
[...] all of us here in Barrio Siete to all of you who believed in us, maraming salamat po to all of those who sent us donations and most especially to these wonderful bloggers who pushed and plugged our project. Thank you to [...]
thank you very much to all who supported this cause. it only shows how generous and compassionate people can be especially when someone is in need.
this call is more than just influencing people. take that, you know who you are. lol
great job Mel, considering na nasa bundok ka pa. impressive!
Maraming maraming salamat po sa lahat ng nakiisa at nagbigay sa ating mga kababayan. Yung pong mga dinonate nyo ay kasalukuyang ibinibili na ng gamot at pagkain ng Red Cross.
at yung ibang dino-nate eh ika-kandado daw po muna nang Sagip whatever. hehehe! thank u blue for your support!
Thanks to Reynz and the bloggers who helped drive this fund-raising. It is truly amazing what we can achieve when we all work as one in helping our countrymen in this time of distress and calamity. They just said it today on TFC that part of the advisory to the people is that they are being encouraged to pray. Yes I pray that our people find the faith, strength, and courage to re-build their lives after this ordeal. Also I pray that our leaders will make better decisions to avoid repeating all the unnecessary mistakes that many have paid their lives with. I pray that our people learn discipline and respect for others,the environment, and themselves.
maraming salamat to you Rosa, you have such a big heart talaga. i hope you multiply!

Well done, Reynz and company.
Btw, hindi na pala P50 to a dollar. Let’s hope taasan ng konti ng Central Bank ang exchange so the total peso remittance will increase. Puwede ba yon?
Hehehe matagal na ata yong Php50 to $1, mas mataas pa ata ang Euro ninyo. I don’t think they can increase that just for donation, pwede siguro bawasan pang invest nung mga anak hehehe
Ah, ganoon ba… hihhi. Sayang!
Salamat po sa lahat ng donations.

All I can say is a BIG CONGRATULATIONS Reynz!
