In the Backyard of SAIDI Foundation Inc. rises slowly an animal ‘zoo’ and fruit trees and vegetables.
Last year, we started with goats, donated by Dr. Rosalina Fuentes, Bro. Noelvic Deloria & Dr. Marissa Fernando, (primarily intended ‘to help’ our maintenance team cut the unwanted grass around the premises of the foundation). This year, more animals are coming!
Thank You, Mr. Fanny Maniebo!
The foundation received from dear Fanny two dozens of young chickens to jumpstart our initiative to raise free range chickens to sell to those who are into organic food consumption.
Thank You, Sr. Flor Pauline Duran!
She has pledged to contribute to the animal backyard initiative of the foundation a couple of piglets, also to be raised free range.
And thank You, too, Mayor Turic Orosco!
He offered to contribute a couple of geese (all the way from Sapian) to bring sounds in the midst of the silence of our premises, especially during ‘sacred hours.’
Effective 25 October 2012, Joseph Condrillon, one of SAIDI’s drivers, is no longer connected with the foundation.
