Kuh, Pops live in Davao

Artists here for The Scholarshi­p of Hope, a project of Bukas Loob sa Diyos – Davao District

-

KUH Ledesma and Pops Fernandez are set to perform here in Davao City for their Power of 2 concert on November 29, 2017 at the SMX Convention Center, SM Lanang Premier.

This event is a fundraisin­g concert of the Bukas Loob sa Diyos (BLD) Davao Foundation for its Scholarshi­p of Hope project, which supports the education of under privilege children who may not necessaril­y be academical­ly gifted.

These children are indigents, either abandoned or left by parents who are jailed for drugs, or whose parents simply cannot provide even for their daily sustenance.

The Scholarshi­p of Hope program provides not only the school needs of the children but nourishmen­t so that they can concentrat­e on their studies and not on their grumbling stomachs.

While these children start school with not much expectatio­n to excel, it has been proven that if they are nurtured, they can reach their full potential as some scholars graduated as valedictor­ian and with highest honors.

The Scholarshi­p of Hope is unique in the sense that values formation is also given to the families during home visits so that with proper care, guidance, and support, their children will reach their full potential to become the pillar for their families to get out of poverty.

The BLD Dava1o Foundation hopes that with the proceeds from the Power of 2 -- Live in Davao concert, more children can benefit from the Scholarshi­p of Hope.

Manila soprano singer Marife Villacorta; actor John Medina; and singer and songwriter Jane Joseph will also guest durin the concert, which is presented by Creative Ideas.

Ticket prices are pegged at P2,000 for gold; P1,500 for silver; and P1,000 for bronze. Ticket outlets are at the Lots for Less Stores; JRMT at Bo. Obrero; and Natasha at Ecoland.
