Prinz Charlz's New Leg
Prinz Charlz Hermillosa, a 5 year old kid from Crossing Buswang, Kalibo, Aklan is the 4th beneficiary of Project W.A.L.K between RC Roxas and RC Forbes Park, Makati City. Through the generosity of his anonymous benefactor who gave the grant of more than Php120, 000 to be able to get one prosthetics leg, Prinz Charlz was able to walk like any normal kid. He is now looking forward to show his new leg to his classmates who are very excited to see him. He misses school, too, as they were billeted at PGH for almost one month.
Thank you to the additional benefactors who were instrumental in this partnership: PGH Prosthetic Lab Dept led by Dr. Penny Bondoc who is always read to lend a hand to our Rotary projects in the different Rotary Districts in the country, Dr. Lemon Quimpo who helped me with the assessment, PP Ramil Buncalan of Kiwanis Club of Kalibo, Ms. Abbie Dionela and Bro. Monchie Rebesencio of BCBP. Also, to PP Botoy Villorente (RC Kalibo) and ATO Manager Percy Malonesio for the transportation and reception committee at the airport during their arrival last October 23, 2010 (KIA). I am very grateful to this folks who in one way or another, big or small, has been part of this endeavor. This has been another successful partnership project of RC Roxas and RC Forbes Park.
Wishes of Aid and Limbs for Kids (W.A.L.K.) aims to assist physically challenged children. A person’s physical mobility goes beyond moving oneself from one place to another. By providing limbs to a physically handicapped person, we endeavor to propel one’s confidence and self-worth towards personal growth and productivity. THIS IS OUR MISSION.
