It was a walk to remember at UNICEF’s "Take a Walk on the Child’s Side" walkathon at the Heritage Park in Fort Bonifacio. The walkathon was held to raise funds to uplift the state of children’s education in the country. The spacious grounds and verdant lawns of Heritage Park were indeed perfect for the event as the participants enjoyed the scenery and the fresh air while taking a stroll for charity.
Everyone was in high spirits as they helped make the undertaking a huge success – from the enthusiastic walkathon participants of all ages to the cheerful and hardworking UNICEF volunteers and organizers. UN communications officer Dale Rotstein officially started the event, while hosts Heritage Park VP for operations Emir Tubayan and VP for sales & marketing Raquel Mendoza made sure everything went smoothly. After the long walk, the young ones had fun as they tried the face-painting booths and refueled from the food and beverage booths near the starting line. Families enjoyed bonding over a simple picnic at the green grass of the park, while some of the children had a grand time flying their kites. In the evening, everyone was treated to a musical extravaganza: a total of 19 bands performed for free to entertain the crowd. The funds raised by the event will be used to improve facilities in our public schools and upgrade the teachers’ skills.
Congratulations for a wildly successful event!
