VOLUNTEER

HOW MUCH HAS YOUR COMPANY INVESTED

  • To increase your corporate visibility in society?
  • To increase employee morale and productivity?
  • To realize your commitment to community involvement?
  • To enhance your capabilities in improving communities around you?

We offer you one simple, inexpensive investment.

1% of your company’s total annual employee time 

Invest it for employee volunteering  
(Have a happier work force!)

And build communities and our nation through The Exchange Arena Project.

WHAT ARE TO BE EXCHANGED? WHAT IS THE ARENA?

To be exchanged are corporate talents and time for social action with civil society groups, local government units, and micro- and small entrepreneurs. Rich lessons from development work are to be shared in exchange for gaining employee-volunteers as additional resources for local and national development.

The arena is a “meet and match” event in December 2006 where the corporate sector invests its “1%” to chosen volunteer opportunities (VOpps) for programs and projects related to poverty alleviation, education, health and environment concerns in the National Capital Region.

We’ll help you find your match!

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOUR COMPANY?

The Exchange Arena provides SUPPORT for your company:

  • To participate in information and education exchanges
  • To link with creative, innovative community-based development programs
  • To access responsive volunteer opportunities
  • To place its employee-volunteers in organizations equipped in volunteer management
  • To monitor and evaluate its volunteer matches

You can also benefit from capability-building programs (on leadership and volunteer management) to be exclusively conducted for investing companies. Not to mention the added publicity through Exchange Arena!

HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED TO INVEST?

Just 1%. Commit at least 1% of your total annual employee time as total employee hours for employee volunteering in 2007 through Exchange Arena. That’s roughly 3 volunteering days for each employee. A cheap portfolio for your ROI, isn’t it?

1 employee = 3 volunteering days a year

During the matching event in December, you may invest the total number of employee volunteering days to a single or combination of VOpps from one or more programs or projects.

WHAT ARE THE MECHANICS OF THE PROJECT?

1. Preparatory Activities (July-November 2006)

  1. Commit your 1%!
  2. Sign an MOU with Exchange Arena team.
  3. Participate in information exchanges and capability-building activities.
  4. Prepare for Exchange Arena event proper.

2. Matching event (December 2006)

  1. Browse through a menu of over 100 VOpps for 2007 in the areas of poverty alleviation, education, health and environment.
  2. Find your match through a computer-assisted matching system.
  3. Invest your 1% to one or a combination of VOpps.
  4. Sign an MOA with your matched organization and the Exchange Arena team.
  5. Celebrate the National Volunteer Month!

3. Volunteering, monitoring and evaluation of matches (2007)

  1. Employees do their volunteer work.
  2. Monitor and evaluate their volunteer experience.
  3. Recognize your employees.

FRIENDSHIP

July 14, 2006

 A girl asked a guy if he thought she was
pretty,
He said…no.

She asked him if he would want to be with her forever…and he said no.
She then asked him if she were to leave would he cry, and once again he
replied with a no.
She had heard enough. As she walked away, tears streaming down her face
the boy grabbed her arm and said…
You’re not pretty you’re beautiful.

I don’t want to be with you forever, I NEED to be! with you forever.
And I wouldn’t cry if you walked away…I’d die…
SO NOW I WILL SAY:
I like you because of who you are to me…A true friend.
And if I don’t get this back I’ll take the hint.
Tonight at midnight your true love will realize they like you.

Something good will happen to you1:00-4:00 PM tomorrow.
It could be anywhere — AOL, Yahoo, outside of school, anywhere.
Get ready for the biggest shock of your life.

Please send to 15 people in 15 minutes.
Remember:

"A good friend will come bail you out of jail….

But a true friend will be sitting next to you saying
WE screwed up! "
Proud to be your Friend!
Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence, and don’t
skip ahead.
I’ve learned…that life is like a roll of toilet paper.
The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.
I’ve learned…that we should be glad God doesn’t give us everything we
ask for.
I’ve learned…that money doesn’t buy class.

I’ve learned…that it’s those small daily happenings that make life so
spectacular.
I’ve learned…that under every! one’s hard shell is someone who wants
to be appreciated and loved.

I’ve learned…that the Lord didn’t do it all in one day.
What makes me think I can?
I’ve learned…that to ignore the facts does not change the facts.
I’ve learned.

I’ve learned…that the less time I have to work, the more things I get
done.
To all of you…make sure you read all the way down to the last
sentence.

It’s National Friendship Week.
Show your friends how much you care.

Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND, even if it means sending
it back to the person who sent it to you.

If it comes back to you, then you’ll know you have a circle of friends.

HAPPY FRIENDSHIP WEEK TO YOU!!!!!!
YOU ARE MY FRIEND AND I am

honored !!!!!!

Subject: AMAZING RESOURCE TO PRESERVE REFIGERATED FRUITS AND VEGITABLES!!:))

PRESERE YOUR FRUITS AND VEGETABLES!!!
YOU CAN USE "ALUMINUM COATED PLASTIC BAGS" TO KEEP THEIR FRUITS AND VEGITABLES FOR WEEKS AND ITS STILL FRESH!!! ITS
SOO AMAZING.

I THOUGHT ITS A GOOD IDEA TO SAFE SOME UNWANTED RESOURCE WHICH MOST PEOPLE WOULD THROW THEM AWAY WITHOUT 2ND THOUGHT.
AND HERE I AM SHARING WITH YOU THE USEFULNESS OF THE UNWANTED RESOURCE IN ACTION.

HERE IS THE KIND OF ALUMINIUM COATED PLASTIC BAG FROM QUAKER. YOU CAN USE ANY OTHER ALUMINIUM COATED BAG WOULD DO.

YOU CAN PUT PLENTY OF FRUITES AND/OR VEGITABLES IN IT..

LOOK AT WHAT MY MATE FOUND… AFTER 1 WEEK… THE VEGITABLES ARE STILL FRESH!!! AMAZING!!! ISN’T IT???! NO DEHYDRATION
AT ALL.:))

LOOK AT THE OCRAS, THEY ARE STILL VERY VERY FRESH WITHOUT ANY DEHYDRATION AT ALL.

BUT DON’T FOLD OR SEAL THE OPENING OF THE BAG. JUST LEAVE THE BAG OPEN AND IT WILL DO THE MAGIC WORK FOR YOU
ALREADY… HAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA….:)) TRY IT OUT… YOU WOULD SURE LIKE IT VERY MUCH TOO.

** INSTEAD OF THROWING THE USEFUL THINGS AWAY, RE-USE IT AGAIN, AND YOU WILL BE INHERENTLY JOINING THE GROUP OF
"SAVING THE MOTHER-EARTH" CAMPAIGN TOO. :) )

 

** PLEASE PASS IT ON **

PETITION FOR BAGUIO CITY

July 9, 2006

Petition for Baguio
   

    Dear All,
 
Everyone who has gone to SAGADA, PULAG, IFUGAO, and other places in the
Cordillera — will notice that BAGUIO has LOST its CHARM– it is
crowded, it is polluted, water is scarce, it is full of squatters even in the
watershed areas and it is HOT.
  
  The pine trees are so choked with smog. SESSION Road is no longer
leisurely cool walk — it’s like being in Cubao (okey - exaggeration but
we really hate the billboards up there — it’s so cluttered, an
eyesore).
  
  Hopefully Sagada won’t follow suit—but it’s getting to be
commercial up there too. Maybe by signing up, you will help RECLAIM BAGUIO’s
lost beauty and stop the degradation of all the other places we all love
in the Northern  region–so, how about signing this petition?

PETITION for BAGUIO:
 
We believe that the City of Baguio is culturally, environmentally and
aesthetically unique and different from other cities in the Philippines. 
  
  We believe that Baguio is the nerve center of four rich and diverse
cultures: the Filipino culture in general, the highland Cordilleran
culture, the lowland Ilocano culture, and the heritage culture brought
about by the Americans during the early 20th Century. 
  
  We believe that in the past two decades, the City of Baguio has
experienced a substantial degradation of its unique culture, environment and
art.
  
  We believe that the approval of certain politicians with no respect
for the aesthetics and the environment of Baguio to put up concrete
structures such as malls, overpasses and flyovers only worsens Baguio
City’s lamentable decay as the "City of Pines."
  
  We believe that this overdevelopment (as they have termed it but is
actually not) and resulting pollution have to stop. 
  
  We believe that due to its unique history and blend of cultures,
Baguio can be to the Philippines as Barcelona is to Spain, Chiang Mai is to
Thailand, and San Francisco is to the United States: a main center of
arts, culture, philosophy, education, tourism, sustainable development
and environmental awareness.

  We believe, therefore, that the City of Baguio deserves to be
declared a "Special Heritage Zone," so that the degradation brought about by
overdevelopment can be minimized and gradually controlled.
  
  We believe that Baguio City’s heritage as a center of culture and
environmental awareness is a valuable asset not just to the Philippines,
but also to the world.
 
We now respectfully call on the residents of Baguio and the Filipino
people to sign this humble petition, and for the local and national
governments concerned to implement and declare Special Heritage status on
this unique mountain  City as soon as possible, preferably before the
Baguio Centennial in 2009, so no further destruction on its limited
cultural, environmental and aesthetic resources may continue.

Please add your name to the list and send this message to as many
people  as possible. Please do not! just click "forward". Instead highlight
the text and copy onto a new message box.

Thank you.
