Football tournament to help nine-month-old baby set
SOME INTER BPO companies will be seeing action in the “Goal for Gab,” a charity football tournament that will be held this Sunday at the Labangon campus of the Don Bosco Technology Center (DBTC).
Tournament organizer Limhar Baunsit, who plays defense for the Cebu Queen City United FC, said the event is aimed at raising funds for the surgical operation of nine-month-old Gabrielle.
Gabrielle, the daughter of Baunsit’s officemate Michael Pacana, has been diagnosed with tetralogy of fallot, one of the types of a congenital heart defect.
Gabrielle is the first child of Michael and Joan Pearl and they have been told by a doctor that they will need to have between P800,000 to P1 million for Gabrielle’s heart surgery to correct the defect.
The tournament will be a 7-A-side festival type with only one category—the inter BPO/company.
The companies seeing action are Xlibris, Convergys, Stream, E-Performax, Timex, Lexmark, Accenture, NKC, NEC, Aegis People Support, NCR, HPOI, Teletech and Lear.
