$700 Will
cover the cost of digging or drilling a well to provide safe, clean drinking water for one water system project at a elementary
school in The Phillipines or Vietnam. *see "WATER FOR LIFE" page $ Any
Amount $ Would be greatly appreciated and saved in our “General Fund”
until we have adequate funds to provide another classroom project, or provide another school with a safe, clean source of
water. Also, each year we support a medical project for an indivdual. As you can see whether you’ve
donated $1 to put a new pair of rubber sandals on a patient’s feet and smile on their face, or $700 to provide a source
of essential fresh water, the result is the same…You’ve made a difference. As you can see
from the list of “New Projects”, we have big goals planned to continue making a difference in
the lives of the underprivlidged in Southeast Asia, but we can’t do it without your help. Lemonade Stand Fundraiser

TULUNGAN means "Helping Hands"
Tulungan is an organization based in Woodbridge, VA which operates through
the dedication of volunteers who give their time, talent, and
support to those in need. Tulungan recently had a fundraiser and generously donated $7,000 to Outreach Asia. These funds will
be used to help support students at the local college in So. Leyte, who lost family members and financial support, as well
as some medication for
the poor in Leyte. We would like to thank Tulungan for their support. |

GEMS Mission receives 8 Rondlla Instruments
|
| George Gange Donates Philippine Instruments |
BE
A RONDALLA HERO! SUPPORT PAGYAMANIN LIKAS
MUSIKA (PLM)- RONDALLA INSTRUMENTS LENDING PROGRAM You may donate any amount or for the whole community's instruments needs for $300.00. If the donor wants,
we could request the rondalla group they are donating for be named after them or in the memory of a loved one for a year.
VISION Help
preserve and promote the playing and appreciation of the native Philippines Rondalla instruments. OBJECTIVE Promote
awareness of this unique aspect of Philippines heritage, to generate support from well-meaning patrons and sponsors, and to
increase the number of rondalla aficionados, especially those who could not otherwise afford to acquire the instruments. It
is hoped that this will ensure a permanent interest in this national treasure and could help keep alive and well the rondalla
instrument making craft and industry.
MECHANICS From
a subset of solicited funds or instruments, a marginalized barangay/village is selected as the target beneficiary. Once resources
and responsible contact persons have been identified, eight (8) rondalla instruments(4 bandurrias, 1 laud, 1 octavina and
2 guitars) are loaned for the freestyle training of its underprivileged children. Upon successful compliance
with the minimum requirements, the beneficiary village eventually becomes the owner of the rondalla instruments, thereby providing
for successive groups of children to enjoy and master the skills of rondalla music.
Since the program’s
inception, the number of nominated marginalized villages has increased. However, the funds I have generated through various
creative activities -- from busking, collecting and selling aluminum cans and plastic bottles to asking
friends and families for assistance – were insufficient to keep up with demand. The program now has eight (8) village
beneficiaries that include an orphanage in Davao and a GK Encanto in Angat, Bulacan and a Philippines National School for
the Blind serving hundreds of underprivileged children. To date, 6 additional villages have been nominated and are awaiting
delivery of their rondalla instruments. INVITATION
Become an agent of change by investing in the future of our children. Together,
let us work to build a healthier and stronger communities by helping level the playing field for our less fortunate
children through the iconic rondalla tradition. Anyone donating to the
Pagyamanin Likas Musika (PLM)/Rondala Instruments Lending program receives a fully deductible tax receipt from Outreach Asia,
a 501c(3) organization.
Support this worthwhile and novel program by making a tax-deductible contribution to Pagyamanin Likas
Musika. If sending a check, make out to Outreach Asia. For further information or to share your thoughts,
ideas, and comments, please e-mail George Gange at chiefgange@sbcglobal.net and Mike Peck at <outreachasia@msn.com>

Meet Sean Herman of Waipahu, Hawaii
Sean has made several contributions to Outreach Asia and will
begin sponsoring a student at So. Leyte Univ on Nov. 1. We asked him how he heard about our organization and he sent this
email:
" I'm 16 years old....I go
to Pearl City High School..I play football..I use to live in the Philippines at Angles City so I know how those kids feel..I
heard about Outreach Asia by reading a book about Mother Teresa. It inspired me to give more money since I can't volunteer
because I'm to busy with sports, school, and church..And your letters back (to me) of what you used my money on, just lifts
me up..It makes me feel like I made a big difference in someones life..So thank you"
