MANILA, Philippines - Joey Albert is scheduled to perform at the Centennial Hall at The Haverford School, 450 W. Lancaster Ave., Haverford, Pennsylvania tomorrow, April 16 at 7:30 p.m.
Titled Joey Albert, the concert is produced by Triple “S” Sports & Entertainment Productions, Limited Liability Company (LLC) and Romeo Joven’s Kubo Productions. A good part of the net proceeds will be donated to the construction of the St. Joseph’s Chapel in Poblacion Ondol, Loboc, Bohol.
This is the first time a Filipino artist will be having a concert in Pennsylvania. Most of the time, concerts or events are held in Atlantic City, NJ or North Jersey, NJ or in New York.
It must be quite an experience to hear Albert sing “live” such well-loved hits as among others, Tell Me, It’s Over Now, I Remember the Boy, Iisa Pa Lamang, Say You’re Mine, Only a Mem’ry , Sa ‘Yo Lamang, A Million Miles Away and Without You.
Despite being semi-retired, Joey, who is also a cancer survivor, lends her voice to worthwhile causes. Her advocacy includes raising funds to provide decent housing for underprivileged communities in the Philippines through Gawad Kalinga, women and children’s rights, and cancer research.
“I had been bringing joy to children for the past eight years. Every year I would treat poor children to a “happy meal” with the help of different socio-civic organizations such as the Rotary Club and the Jaycees International. This maybe a very simple thing but granting this simple wish to these poor children can make a difference to a day in their lives. A good part of the net proceeds will be for this noble undertaking and for a chapel,” says producer Steven Suganob.
