PEOPLE PLACES - Flor S. YNCLINO -

It was a complete free medical and dental clinic for all the children of St. Martin de Porres School for the mentally challenged, autistic and hearing-impaired, as well as the children’s parents. The free clinic was sponsored by the personnel and staff of MSY Holdings, Inc. who were October birthday celebrators.
