And as a driving Instructor, living in the burbs of Chicago and watching and seeing how many motorcycles are in that area especially and knowing the dangers of motorcycles, this mission is unbelievably important. Goldfinger, you're great man, this is your idea and too see you and the others and all the support you had put it into action is just fabulous. My wife and I have a trip planned to Cebu in October and we put Dumaguete on our itinerary because of you guys. We still have sometime before retirement as I'm only 51, but I will be doing what I can to help your guys causes keep up the good work.

This really shows how much the expats care about children in the community. I am from Canada and just learned a few weeks ago that there are over 1 million people from the Philippines living in Canada now, which is quite amazing considering we only have just under 39 million people here. We welcome them and are glad that they represent Canada so well as a country of friendly people.

    When asked, most Filipinos would say helping their children get educated is the most prized gift anyone could give them. Hence, several of my friends and I have sponsored children over the years to the point where some have graduated from college and are giving back to their community now. I am guessing some of you are also doing something like this already and certainly suggest everyone consider it. During my last trip, we started helping yet another child. The need is everywhere. We can't help everyone but we all certainly can help someone...may it be so for all of us!

    I normaly dont react to video's, but this time i had to because it brought me tears. I got a Philippne girlfriend for 3 years now, i live in The Netherlands, i spend the entire month off December in the Philippines and there are no nicer and happyer people. What you are doing in this video is what im dreaming of, i want to live in the Philippines in the future, its still a long road to go because im not old ennough to retire so need to setup an income stream.But ones i live there i want to help where ever i can. Ones you have been to the Philipines and met the locals and had the luck to be part of there lifes there is no other joice than love them and there country. God blees you all.

    Wow great video guys! The recent drama there soured my view of Duma a bit, but you certainly have restored my faith in the Expats of Dumaguete! I applaud Goldfinger and the rest of the organizers, those who donated and the volunteers, and of course, Old Dog! That was a very touching act of charity by all and I was amazed by how good the kids were! I hope to be involved in these types of activities when I get there. Cheers!

    This was an excellent event and very impressive! More organized, more helmets, better appropriately sized helmets available and multiple people helping at each station to assist with proper fitting & personalization. Going from 150 helmets the last time to 500 this time is impressive & I'd bet your next helmet giveaway to be at 1000 helmets or more so congratulation on such a great turnout along with the help and organization from the school staff & other ex-pats & friends helping out. The only recommendation I can think of for next time--have signs to label the waiting lines (i.e. grade 1-3, 4-x, etc.) for the kids waiting to get their helmet to make it easier for the kids to be in the correct line for the correct helmet size for their head. Once again, thanks to everyone involved to make this event such a huge success.
