THE Our Lady of Victory Training Center (OLVTC) brings its first concert entitled Able: The Musicale (The Story of the Disabled, Who Were Enabled and Are Now Able) on October 1, 2016, 7:00 p.m., at the RSM Events Center inside the Philippine Women's College of Davao Campus.
The musical event is part of the celebration of the OLVTC's 35th Anniversary and its founder, Sr. Cecelia Wood's 95th birthday.
ABLE will showcase the talents of the disabled persons in singing and in playing musical instruments.
“All of the proceeds of this event will go to OLVTC to sustain its programs that are aimed to improving the lives of its beneficiaries and making them able to become self-reliant and independent,” said Arturo Milan, President of the OLVTC.
Sister Cecilia Wood of the Maryknoll Sisters started the OLVTC in 1981.
More than six thousand handicapped persons including indigent youths have been beneficiaries of the OLVTC.
Some of them are now working with OLVTC as trainers in handicrafts, metal crafting, and other skills-related trainings. (PR)
