Manila Bulletin led by its Chairman Dr. Emilio T.

The Manila Bulletin Chairman, Directors, Officers, Editors, and Staff appeal to their Readers, Advertisers, Friends, Supporters, Concerned Citizens, Government Officials, Business and Industrial Establishments, Banking and Financial Institutions, Foreign Embassies and Communities, Private and Public Organizations, to support this fund drive, a worthy cause in keeping with the spirit of sharing with our less fortunate brothers and sisters.
