Now in its 7th year, Embrace Organization for Differently Abled Inc. continues its mission to reach out and empower differently abled members of society through their Embrace Café. It is a non-stock and non-profit organization providing services like therapy, skills training, and livelihood programs.
Meanwhile, the Embrace organization spearheaded a 3-day event at the EVM Convention Center from March 18-20 with the theme “A Different Cinema: Celebrating Persons with Disability,” where they offered film showings that are family-oriented and child-friendly.
They also organized a bazaar for those who wanted to learn about different organizations and groups that empower differently abled individuals. Additionally, the local government of Quezon City supported the event by providing a Persons with Disability Affairs Office help desk that would answer questions and accept registrations/renewals for PWD cards, which was very helpful.
There are also sessions for sign language for those who wanted to learn with the help of Christian Society for the Deaf.
During the opening of the event, Embrace Chairperson True Santos-Matias, Net25 President Caesar Vallejos, Net25 Entertainment Head Tonipet Gaba, veteran news anchors, and TV personalities Rey Langit, Love Añover, and Ali Sotto were present at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
