Good Samaritans from the United States and Singapore donated four balikbayan boxes of tennis equipment to the Iloilo City Sports and Development Division.

The donation of tennis rackets, shoes, and balls will be a huge help to the Iloilo City Sports Academy and to less fortunate players who can’t afford to spend money on rackets and the proper shoes for tennis.

The package from the USA arrived last Monday while the package from Singapore was received in the second week of February.

Coaches Alquinn Flores, Alven Santiago, and Jonell Lavore facilitated the tennis donations as well as the turnover of the equipment to the Iloilo City government.

The Iloilo Sports Division would like to thank Lin, Anthony, Mitch and Lula, Maggie, Barbara, Betsy and Dony, Lynda, Beth, Karen, Carol Yo, Allison, Snow, Dr. Scott, Suna, Nataly, Jennelle, Pat, Claudia, Alvin Santiago, Lulu Andrada, Club Continental, San Jose Country Club, Julington Creek Plantation Tennis Club, Direk Bobby Mangunay of Palawan Pawnshop, Coach Lucas Pluta of Singapore.
