GK BAYANI CHALLENGE 2008


Mabuhay, Bayani!


We would like to invite you to the 3rd GK1MB Bayani Challenge - dubbed as H.O.P.E. 2008: Building the highway of Peace - an event where nation building is an adventure pushed to the extreme. Conflict and divisiveness have brought destruction to this land of promise. Brother Filipino fighting brother Filipino – PEACE must be BUILT .

So, we call on all bayanis to come and join us in the province of Bukidnon and Lanao del Sur on April 21-25, 2008 for 5 grueling days of back-breaking work, tears, laughter and many unforgettable experiences. All you have to do is group yourselves into a team of 15 people and register.

And on April 26, 2008 all will converge in Wao, Lanao del Sur for the 4 th Caravan for Peace.

Be part of this historic event where Christians, Muslims and Lumads, in genuine friendship, build peace together in Mindanao!
