On June 17, 2011, the Brethren of Frank Reed Horton Memorial Lodge No. 379 led by its Worshipful Master, WB Robert “Mr. Charity” Sing went to Minalin, Pampanga for its “Sapin sa Paa Project” for 152 school children of Bulac Elementary School. Aside from giving slippers to the students, the brethren also distributed school supplies consisting of shirts, towels, pencils and pads to the children and donated to the school library lots of children’s books. The children were also treated to snacks and drinks, and later on with packed lunch.

As there were surplus of slippers and other school supplies, nearby Saplad Elementary School was also made a recipient of this project.

On July 2, 2011, the Brethren of Frank Reed Horton Memorial Lodge No. 379, on the occasion of the birthday of Bro. SW Kristoffer G. B. Llacuna, conducted an Outreach Program at the Golden Acres Haven for the Elderly at Brgy. Pag-Asa, Quezon City. Some 100 elderlies were treated to hot arrozcaldo and boxes and cans of milks were donated to the Center together with Washing Machine Dryer, Big Rice Cooker, towels, toothbrushes, toothpastes, biscuits, noodles and eggs.

This tradition of celebrating birthdays with our less fortunate fellowmen was initiated by WB Sing when he celebrated his Birthday with children patients at the Philippine Orthopedic Hospital and followed by Bro. JW Belli B. Tamayo who celebrated his birthday at DSWD-RSSC at Quezon City.

The recently conducted Outreach Program was also the Brethren’s tribute to the Worshipful Master’s mother, Mama Sing Le Tin Ong, who have joined our Supreme Grand Master on the evening of June 29, 2011. May she rest in peace in the Joy of our Lord.
