HISTORY WAS MADE TODAY in A Better Chance Foundation
HISTORY WAS MADE TODAY in A Better Chance Foundation
For the first time ever a scholar/graduate has ‘paid it forward’ and become a Donor to ABC Foundation by sponsoring one Night High Scholar. That scholar/ graduate, now donor, is Leo Dimatalo. Leo belonged to the Class of 2008 at Siena, Taytay where he was class president for 3 years and Valedictorian of his class. I was at the graduation of this class and I’m remembering some of his classmates: Ivy and Faye Sedo, Jessica Piguerra, Jamie Medina, Renz Olvida, Mark Cruz, DK Victor and Mercado Mercado. Leo gave his valedictory address and I clearly remember him saying,” someday a Night High Scholar will be the president (long pause)……..of The Philippines”. There was thunderous applause and cheering!

After Night High Leo was able to get a scholarship on his own from Adamson University in exchange for working 5 years in the Registrar’s Office. His course was the 5 years Accountancy major. Leo now works for the (BIR) Bureau of Internal Revenue, Manila and is a part time student at the Law School of University of the East, Juris Doctor Program. Leo made history today in A Better Chance Foundation, Thanks and congratulations! By next week we’ll inform you who your scholar is.
