According to Wiki,
A teacher is a person who helps others to acquire knowledge, competences or values.
We all know, a teacher is more than a professor and an instructor, they are our second parents in our second home, the classroom. September
is National Teacher’s Month, and PLDT_Smart Foundation is advocating the
importance of education by supporting local teachers for 11 years now. Gaby
Guro was created in the year 2007 to honor and empower teachers across the
Philippines with different programs like housing and educational facilities,
scholarships, trainings, livelihood programs, innovations, tributes and
broadbanding and computerization of local schools. For more than a decade, Gaby
Guro already donated several classrooms, scholarship grants and fortify over
40,000 educators.
To celebrate the milestone, the foundation
gather thousands of teachers from public and private sectors all over the
country for a night to remember, the Gabay Guro Grand Gathering 2018.
The event
was held at the Mall of Asia Arena last September 23 and was organized to be
this year’s biggest tribute to all the Filipino teachers. An exclusive to
teachers concert of Philippines brightest stars like Megastar Sharon Cuneta,
Songbird Regine Velasquez-Alcasid, Ogie Alcasid, Martin Nievera, Jaya, Gabby
Conception, and many more.
The
highlight of this event for me would be the impromptu duet of Martin Nievera and
DepEd Secretary Leonor Briones and Gary V’s sing and dance number with his son
and daughter. The event aside from being star-studded was also jampacked with
raffle prizes – gift certificates, smartphones and other gadgets, home
appliances, livelihood packages, vehicles, cash prizes and a brand new house
and lot!
Congratulations PLDT-Smart Foundation for the successful big event and thank you for honoring our second parents at school, the teachers. And thank you for having me!
We will never be what we are now, if not through the help, patience and guidance of our dear teachers. Thank you!
