This is a real help for Filipinos
Last week There was the last concert of the German
music association “Musikverein Kressbronn” here in Davao. It took place in
Davao-Toril. In a highschool of this small town with more than 1000 students, teachers and Germans
living in Davao region. It was great and everyone loved it.
After 7 years it was the second time that the
“Musikverein Kressbronn”was with 70
musicians - at its own expenses– here in the Philippines to bring German brass
music and at the same time to bring joy.
Many of the musicians have visited the children
and students which they support from Germany. In particular, the “Musikverein
Kressbronn” supports the work of the “Kressbronn-Toril-Education-Program (KTEP)”
in Toril. This KTEP was launched about 25 years ago by a German-Philippine
family from Germany in order to help poor people with long-term projects and
provide them with a livelihood
With the help of donations and many initiatives the KTEP was
able to build around 100 wells in the
surrounding villages, which have no water connection. In the meantime the KTEP could finance and build: e.g. Two kindergartens with
free food on Fridays, the installation of a dental practice, a start-up of a chicken and
pig breeding. Further projects are waiting for implementation.
Help is appreciated. So, fellow-workers are
welcomed.

Ludwig from Davao
