Accenture hosts thanksgiving dinner for its Corporate Citizenship volunteers

By Romeo Mataac, Jr.Saturday, November 12, 2016Community No comments
The Corporate Citizenship Philippines Team held an appreciation dinner last August 23 for all our kind-hearted Corporate Citizenship volunteers and project partners at the CVC Manila in Cybergate 1.


Corporate Citizenship Philippines Lead Nescel Asuncion and Country Geographic Services Lead Joan Liston led an intimate ceremony where active employee volunteers and project teams were recognized for their hard work, dedication, and passion for helping the less privileged. It was also an opportunity to honor and celebrate the achievements of Corporate Citizenship for FY16 and a chance to discuss their plans for FY17.

Transforming lives and uplifting the Filipino spirit, Corporate Citizenship’s accomplishments for FY16 include multiple scholarship grants, eco-engagement activities, disaster reliefs and Skills to Succeed initiatives.

Creating an impact by lending a hand

Accenture Enterprise Enablement’s Romeo “Myong” Mataac, Jr., shared that he loves participating in Accenture’s Skills to Succeed programs because he is “able to inspire children to aspire and act on their dreams, and become productive citizens”.

Romeo Mataac, Jr.
“I usually volunteer for initiatives related to youth empowerment. I’ve facilitated multiple workshops for Customer Service Essentials, Work Life Skills, Resume Writing and Job Interview for out of school youths,” he said.

Meanwhile, for Angelica “Ge” Espaldon of Manila-Legal Global Service Center, volunteering “has been an eye-opening experience” for her.

As one of the POCs for the Legal Corporate Citizenship Committee (LCCC) under the Legal Global Service Center, she mostly conducts trainings for our Corporate Citizenship beneficiaries and partners such as Leonard Cheshire Disability Philippines Foundation Inc. and Philippine Business for Social Progress.

“I like seeing the fire and enthusiasm in the eyes of the children when we teach them. I am sure that if given the opportunity and resources, these kids can go a long way. I wish some of our colleagues would see that too. We at LCCC hope to reach out to more volunteers, so they can also get to see and feel what we experience,” she said.

Myong shares a similar sentiment: “There is still an overwhelming number of youth who are unable to finish their studies. But if each one of us does our part, we can make a positive impact. We can make a difference.”

Accenture Manila Billing Center gives love to the Little Angels Home

By Romeo Mataac, Jr.Tuesday, May 31, 2016Community No comments
April 23, 2016 was a different and important day for the members of Manila Billing Center (MBC). They were not required to make invoices nor any finance-related transactions that day. Instead, they went to Mendez, Cavite, for a mission - to share and give back to the Little Angels Home, Inc.


Little Angels Home, Inc. (LAHI) is a child care institution providing 24-hour resident group care service for the physical, mental, social and spiritual well-being of mentally gifted, dependent, abandoned, neglected, handicapped and disturbed children, including those abused and exploited. LAHI currently cares for and shelters more than 30 children from 1 to 15 years old, who have various needs and stories. Most of them were abandoned by their parents because of poverty.

The Manila Billing Center prepared an outreach team building program for the children of LAHI. The MBC folks acted as big brothers and sisters to the kids during game time. They also gave clothes and small gifts such as chocolate and candies. They made sure that every child enjoyed and was satisfied with the food they served.


Sister Monica Suliva, LAHI administrator-in-charge, said “Sa ngalan po ng Little Angels Home, Inc. at ng aming congregation, Handmaids of the Risen Christ, ako po ay nagpapasalamat sa mga empleyado ng Accenture, sa pagbibigay ninyo ng inyong panahon at blessings upang mapasaya ninyo ngayon ang mga batang naririto sa aming tahanan. Sana po ay napasaya din namin kayo at nawa ay nabigyan ng mga lessons, na kahit man lamang sa pakikipagkwentuhan at pakikipaglaro sa mga bata ay naipadama po natin na mayroong nagmamahal sa kanila, na hindi sila kaawa-awa. Maraming salamat po at pagpalain kayong lahat ng Panginoon”.

Manila Billing Center manager Lilibeth Dela Concepcion shared “I considered this as one of the most significant happenings in my entire life. I am so proud that I have the Manila Billing Center support around this high-spirited endeavor. I fervently pray that our benevolent God may continue to lead us in bringing upright moral values, positive ideas, warm affection and lofty goals to our less fortunate people. I am thanking each and every team member as we journey together outside the workplace being One Team, One Spirit!”

Biyaheng Bohol at Cebu: First time nila ama at ina na sumakay ng eroplano

By Romeo Mataac, Jr.Tuesday, March 15, 2016Travel, Visayas No comments
Si ama at ina habang sakay ng Air Asia patungong Cebu.
Sa lahat ng booking sa eroplano at paglagalag na ginawa ko, ito ang pinakamasaya para sa akin dahil for the first time ay makakasama ko sina ama at ina sa pag-travel ko outside Luzon.

First time rin silang sasakay ng eroplano.

Sabi ng nanay ko, akala raw n'ya ay hanggang tingin na laang siya sa langit kapag may nadaang eroplano. Akala raw n'ya ay lilisan sila sa mundo na hindi matitikman kung ano ang pakiramdam ng nagabiyahe sa himpapawid.

Excited ang mag-asawa na sumakay ng eroplano. Lumingon pa si ama, huli ka!
'Yon pala, darating ang panahon na makasasakay rin siya dito.

Maliit man na accomplishment para sa iba, maituturing kong isa ito sa most fulfilling na achievement na nagawa ko sa buong buhay ko. Isa kasi sa pangarap ko ay maisakay sina ama at ina sa eroplano hindi man sa ibang bansa ang ruta, pero sa lugar na alam kong makapagpapasaya sa kanila.

Sa Cebu at Bohol ang aming naging destinasyon.

Umalis kami sa NAIA Terminal 4 sakay ng Air Asia Z2775, alas-10:50 ng umaga noong Marso 8, 2016 at lumapag sa Cebu Internatioal Airport pasado alas-12:10 ng tanghali.

Dumeretso kami sa bahay ng aming pinsan na si Gemma sa Consolacion kung saan ay doon kami pansamantalang mananatili.

Kinagabihan ay nagtungo kami sa malapit na fast food restaurant upang maghapunan. Kasama si Gemma, ang kanyang anak na si Ken at ang kanyang mother-in-law.
Kinabukasan ay ang opisyal na araw ng aming pamamasyal.

Mula sa Cebu City, sakay ng habal-habal ay nagtungo kami sa Taoist Temple. Ito ang pinakamadaling mode of transportation patungo sa templo dahil mataas na lugar ang kinatatayuan nito.

Isa sa mga pahingahan patungo at pabalik sa Taoist Temple

Ito ang Taoist Temple sa Cebu. Walang entrance fee dito. Kailangan tahimik. Magbigay respeto dahil ang lugar ay sagrado. Hindi pinapayagang mag-take ng picture sa loob ng templo.

Maaari ring mag-meditate sa lugar na ito.

Si ama habang nagpapahinga sa ibabang bahagi ng Taoist Temple. Hindi na siya makaakyat dahil masakit ang paa, may rayuma.

Si ama, ina at ako. May parang ahas na dragon sa itaas na bahagi, naputol na laang sa larawan. Ano kaya ang simbolo ng display na ito?

Overlooking ang siyudad ng Cebu sa taas ng Taoist Temple.
Pagkagaling namin ng Taoist Temple ay nagtungo naman kami sa Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral upang magpasalamat sa Panginoon sa lahat ng biyaya na ipinagkaloob niya sa aming pamilya.

Plano rin naming bisitahin si Cardinal Ricardo Vidal apparently he was not arround by then. Si Cardinal Vidal kasi ay aming kababayan. Siya ay nagmula sa Mogpog, Marinduque.

Si nanay 'yong may kibat na bag, habang nananalangin sa Adoracion Chapel sa cathedral.

Ito ang Metropolitan Cathedral sa Cebu. Napakaganda, napakamakasaysayang istruktura. Saksi sa iba't ibang istorya ng lipunan noong panahon ng Kastila hanggang sa kasalukuyan. Simbolo ng isang matatag na Kristiyanismo sa Pilipinas.
Ilan pa sa aming mga pinuntahan ay ang Basilica Minore del Santo Nino de Cebu at Magellan's Cross. Nalowbat na lamang ang baterya ng aking camera at cellphone kaya wala akong picture na sa inyo ay maipakita.

Pasado alas-9:00 na ng gabi ng makabalik kami sa Consolocion dahil ma-traffic mula sa Cebu City.

BASAHIN: Sundan ang aming Day 3 adventure, sa Bohol naman kami nagpunta, alamin kung bakit hindi nakasama si ama.
