Juan Earth 5th Anniversary Celebration
#ConservePHSharks |
Last September 29, 2018, I went to Write On Track’s (WOT) 5th Year Anniversary wherein WOT produced a grassroots effort entitled “Juan Earth” as a way of giving back to our planet. It was held at Bonifacio High Street Activity Center.
Write On Track partnered with various non-government organizations (NGO) and schools in making that “Juan” step towards taking action to save Mother Earth.

It was a whole day event buzzing with activities. NGOs had booths, talks, and workshops regarding their group advocacies.
It was hosted by Renz Ongkiko and Rica Garcia of Monster RX 93.1. Performances from FEU-IAS Dance Company and PUP Teatro Komunikado added an energetic vibe during the event. And in closing, attendees was serenaded under the stars by the famous OPM band, Silent Sanctuary.

The organization was also given 15-minutes onstage to talk about their advocacy on Responsible Pet Ownership and the Five Freedoms of every animal.

Silent Sanctuary |
Silent Sanctuary with three founding members Norman Dellosa (vocals, guitars), Paolo Legaspi (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Allen Calixto (drums).
Silent Sanctuary sang some of their greatest hits. My favorites are Pasensya ka na, Bumalik ka na sakin, Sa'Yo, and Kundiman.
It was one of the most fun and memorable event I attended. Thank you Write on Track and Juan Earth. It was a great celebration with a beautiful cause. This is something I can teach my kids that protecting our planet is an everyday commitment- and that's worth it for generations to come. By participating in simple acts to save the earth like recycling, planting trees, and protecting animals, every Juan's collaborative effort to preserve and protect the Earth can make an impact.
Together, let’s all make that JUAN step towards taking ACTION to SAVE Mother Earth!
Over a thousand individuals participated in the event, some shared their performing arts talents, some shared their time, some donated, some volunteered, some provided resources, and some just held our hand. It was truly a heart-melting moment for us when we saw all are participating and contributing to our CSR efforts.Write On Track Chief Operating Officer Koko Tamura said.
Congratulations Juan Earth and Write Track on celebrating your 5th Anniversary!
