CEBU Nanays for Nanays and Basadours Inc. recently hosted the “Mother and Child Day” event in Barangay Calawisan, Lapu-Lapu City.

The event was sponsored by Jollibee and Avon.

Basadours storytellers read stories and facilitated arts activity for the 120 day care pupils.

The fastfood chain provided the snacks for 200 people and donated school signs to Calawisan Centro Day Care Center. Day care teacher Charisse Tanudra received the donations.

On the other hand, Avon conducted a make-up workshop and livelihood talk with women and gave out raffle prizes and special tokens for the best attire and best dancers in the zumba dance session in the afternoon.

“It is our goal to bring the joy of reading to children and likewise share knowledge and expertise to the women of the barangays,” said Cris Evert Lato-Ruffolo, chairperson of Basadours Inc.

Ruffolo, also creative director and founder of Cebu Nanays for Nanays, said the September session will be held at the Cebu City Public Library.
