“I’m super overwhelmed with the response we got for the camp,” sambit ni Valdez, personal na nagsasagawa ng pagtuturo sa basic ng larong volleyball.
“Even during the first leg, we’ve been getting requests to bring the camp to the provinces.I’ am just blessed to be given this opportunity to share the knowledge we have to these kids and we’re looking forward to doing more of these in the future,” aniya.

“Super happy. Naiyak ako sa sobrang tuwa,” sambit ng 15-anyos na si Alyssa Miralles, isa sa mga kabataan lumahok mula sa Tacloban.
