Filipino Bands rocked fans at the Delmon International Hotel on sunday Bands rock in music for charity event night in a music for charity event aimed at raising funds to help poor families in the Philippines.
Hundreds came to watch the event and joined the programme aimed at providing the finishing touches to the “Bahrain Village” project of the Gawad Kalinga Bahrain which provided 40 houses for poor families.
“This is the biggest charity concert that we have held since the Gawad Kalinga project started,” said Roger Coronel, head of the Gawad Kalinga in Bahrain
The Gawad Kalinga is a Philippine international movement working for the provision of houses to poor families.
The concert was staged with the Triskelion International in Bahrain.
The concert also raised funds to bankroll the Triskelion project to support “Tuloy Aral” (continue schooling) for poor Filipino children in cooperation with the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration.
Also included in the programme was an auction of Christmas lanterns prepared by inmates at the shelter of the Philippine Embassy.
Coronel said that the “Bahrain Village” in southern Philippines, located in the Mindanao region, will be inaugurated by early next year.
This is the third time that the GK and the Triskelion held a charity concert in Bahrain.
Seven of the best Filipino bands from the different hotels in Bahrain participated in the concert. “It is a worthwhile project and we are very happy to be performing in this concert,” said one band member.
