A Challenging Project in a Difficult Time

Dear Friends:

Wishing you a Happy and Healthy New Year!!

Please accept my apology for not sending out the greetings sooner. We were simply busy preaching the NCUBB project and laying the ground work for the awareness campaign events this year.

In addition to many press coverage on the launch, we were also on the air waves as follows

Channel 8 KTSF26 Talk Tonight with Orlando Shih and Joseph Pang on January 9. Interview is available once permitted by KTSF26 for release.

Additional interview with Liz Saint John and Scott Hildula was aired this weekend on the following radio stations:Alice @ 97.3 fm – Sunday between 7-8 a.m.Between 6-7 a.m. On KFRC, KMBC (99.7) and KITS (Live 105 FM) and KYOU on 1550 AM

We are also in the production of making a 5 to 10 minutes documentary film on the story of Joanne and the mission of the foundation which will be available in late February.

We will be presenting the NCUBB project at various meetings, such as Lions Club, Kiwanis, and Evangelization Concert... in the coming months. Key awareness campaign events, such as Golf, Dinner/Annual Reconciliation, etc., are currently being planned.

If you could contribute your time and assist us in these events, please let us know. We will be happy to fan out to present the project if you could help us arrange one. We hope, through many of these functions, we could solicit needed supports for this NCUBB project from various Bay Area communities.

Finally, on behalf of the JPF board, I would like to thank many of you for the precious times and generous donations in support of this project. We are really undertaking a challenging project in a difficult time (Economic uncertainties) and we need lots of your prayers.

I would like to conclude this update with a memorable note “God hears even the smallest voice” from Sr. Margaret, Joanne’s 2nd grader teacher during her illness. Together with your help, we would let our little voice be heard and make the dream of the NCUBB a reality.

For additional information, please contact Lisa Napoli, our latest addition to the board, of Community Relations at lisanapoli@sbcglobal.net.

Blessings,

Joe.
