Boto Mo Patrol Mo @ FEU Manila



Boto Mo Patrol Mo once again goes full blast as it allowed a lot of people to join ABS-CBN's team for the forthcoming elections. The sites were nationwide and shown through ABS-CBN's Umagang Kay Ganda program which aired from 5:15 am to 9:00 am. Again STI was tasked to help out in the registration proceedings for Boto Mo Patrol. Another volunteer effort of STI students and teachers.


To be able to help out we brought in six computers to FEU, another four at the Cainta Municipal Hall, and three computers each at Siliman University in Dumaguete City, Northeastern College in Santiago Isabela and Notre Dame College in Cotabato. Of course STI schools in those areas mentioned helped out. For the Metro Manila joust we asked the STI College Ortigas Cainta crew and the STI College Recto team to help out. Since there weren't any students yet I got three Olympians to help out - Renz Cruz, Raffy Waminal and Maclean Sabellina.

The three Olympians enjoyed every moment spent in this project specially when people they know back in Cagayan de Oro were texting them that they were seen on national television. Imagine them getting up at 1am and seeing the team at STI HQ at `1:30 pm before going to FEU for the set up and finally the event. It was definitely a sacrifice that they enjoyed since they got to see UKG stars and have some pics with them.



Today at the Manila campus of Far Eastern University more than three hundred fifty students, faculty members and staff were at hand to register for Boto Mo Patrol mo. This is a strong number considering the other registrations we had yielded lesser results from schools with a bigger base of students. See you guys in future Boto Mo Patrol mo campaigns.
