My Dear Friends,
On September 7, 2008, Sunday starting at 11:00 a.m., members of the Danao Association, U.S.A. (DAUSA), their friends and relatives will observe and celebrate the feast of their hometown patron saint, the venerable Santo Tomas de Villanueva, at the Silverado Park Social Hall, 1545 West 31st Street, Long Beach, CA 90810.
We invite you to join us in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist jointly officiated by Msgr. Alfeo Manalili and Fr. Mariano Batucan. We want you to join us partake in a hearty lunch and share a good clean fun with Danawanons of Southern California.
Being at this traditional yearly DAUSA event, we expect you to experience, like most of us, a gratifying feeling of self-fulfillment for doing a good deed, making a difference in the lives of some less fortunate brothers and sisters back home.
The $25.00 donation that DAUSA is requesting from our guests is enough to cover the cost of at least one minor surgical procedure. The DAUSA Medical Mission volunteers do, on average, about 200 minor surgeries, such as abscess or cyst removal, etc. and no less than 30 major surgical procedures, that if done at a private hospital, could cost a patient over a 100,000 pesos.
DAUSA has been doing this, year after year, since 1998. It had assisted 3 children come to Los Angeles; two underwent extremely delicate life saving procedures.
Please, come, join us, spend an afternoon with super friendly Danawanons honoring their patron saint and do your share in saving a life.
VIVA SANTO TOMAS!
Sincerely,
Anita Cal-Jackson, M.D.
DAUSA President & Chief of Medical Mission
