Special guest was Rep. Lucy Torres- Gomez who received from FCCP its donation of motorboats to the constituents of 2rmoc, one of the many places ravaged by typhoon Yolanda.
The FCCP was founded in 1979 with a vision to enhance and positively impact the lives of people through the arts. Among its projects are scholarship grants to outstanding students in the performing and visual arts, such as its scholars at the University of the Philippines College of Music and Arts, the University of Sto. Tomas and St. Paul’s College. It also has programs that bring arts — such as classic and contemporary ballet, folk dance and music — to public and private schools. It disseminates information about season performances of leading cultural groups and conducts trips to provinces to visit heritage houses, centuries- old cathedrals and museums, and watch cultural shows.
