In celebration of Philippine Charity and Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) 75th Anniversary, they will hold “100% in One Day,” a simultaneous medical, dental, feeding and information-generating mission in 42,000 barangays nationwide on September 6, 2009. Aside from general check-ups, minor surgeries like the removal of cataracts and lumps, dental services and circumcisions, eye exam refractions, bone scans and ear check monitors will be offered on Sept. 6. Eyeglasses will also be given to senior citizens.

Few weeks ago, while waiting for the LRT 1 (Light Rail Transit 1) I have read the advertisement regarding the said event. I became interested since I have nothing to do. So, I searched it up in the web. Unfortunately there was no information regarding the registration for volunteers so I gave up that thought. However, when I went to PRC (Professional Regulation Commission) today, I have read another advertisement posted regarding the health mission for volunteers with details and all so I grabbed it. I called the office and they were very glad to receive more volunteers for the said event.

Here are some details that I got upon calling:

General Orientation for Volunteers
Date: September 3, 2009
Time: 2:00 PM
Place: Executive Lounge 4th Floor PCSO (E. Rodriguez Sr. Ave. Quezon City)

*Graduates of any medical field courses are also welcome
*Food and Certificates will be provided upon participating the health mission on Sept. 6, 2009

The health mission is NATIONWIDE (I still don’t know the list of location) so it depends on the volunteer on where he/she wants to participate.

They are very much in need of volunteers (RN, MD, and other health care providers) so please… PLEASE do spread the word…

This is very much applicable to me since I am a certified BUM and I want to help and be productive. (nice…:])

FOR MORE INQUIRIES PLEASE CALL (02) 7416718 (PCSO number)
