ChildHaus thanksgiving party in GRRTNT

MANILA, Philippines - On Saturday at 9 a.m., GMA News TV’s Gandang Ricky Reyes Todo Na Toh (GRRTNT) will feature a  thanksgiving party held at the ChildHaus (CH) last Dec. 22.

Honored at the event were the benefactors of the temporary shelter for ailing children located at the 90 Mapang-akit St., Diliman, Quezon City while mascots, clowns and a magician entertained the kids.

Philanthropist and business mogul, Hans Sy, graced the affair with his wife and children. They distributed gifts to the wards who danced and sang for the Sy family as a gesture of gratitude to their Ninong Hans who donated the house and lot.

Also being featured are the former CH patients who survived cancer and other life-threatening diseases.  “We are saddened when a patient dies but we rejoice when we see the graduates (survivors) leaving us to go back to their homes because they are finally cured,” says Ricky Reyes.

After nine years, the head count of the survivors is more than 3,000. There are 36 children at ChildHaus who are hoping that more godparents will support them. Their guardians pray that the kids will leave the place ready to face the world normal and healthy.
