Kalinangan suggests the laborious task of cultivating rough terrain for its fruitful
use. KALFI, in turn, believes that the youth are worth this task -- preparing the
ground well and keeping it fertile for them -- so that the seeds of education
flourish into fruitful knowledge and responsible service in society.
KALFI accomplishes its mission-vision through five Study Center projects: the
Balanghai Study Center in Pasig, the Tahilan Residence and University Center in
Manila, the Iraya Study Center in Sta. Mesa Heights, the Daniw Study Center in
Katipunan and the Banilad Study Center in Cebu.
One of these children is Seve Perez. In September 2005 – one month after
turning 3 years old – Seve was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia.
Despite these trials, Seve remained cheerful and playful, very active and
inquisitive like any boy his age. He showed tremendous courage facing his
affliction. In March 2008, exactly 890 days after diagnosis, and after 1,000
needles, Seve was declared in complete remission. For the next five (5) years,
Seve will undergo regular checkups, and only after 5 years without treatment
will the doctors declare him medically cured. With the blessing of the Almighty,
Seve will grow up like any regular boy, with dreams and aspirations, though
armed with unique experience - that even now, is bringing out firm resolve from
him that he will help other children so that no child will suffer as much as he did.
However touching Seve’s story may be, it is not unique. He is just one of
thousands who suffer from childhood cancer in the Philippines. And like Seve,
these children are forced to battle their cancer each and every day. This battle
sometimes takes years, and is always a very costly one – making it doubly hard
for the children and their families.
The courageous spirit of Seve and over a thousand other children who gamely
battle cancer have inspired Seve’s parents, Paul and Sigrid Perez, to establish
Project: Brave Kids.
The ensemble performs a wide repertoire of various styles and forms : renaissance
music, classical music, Filipino and international folksongs, contemporary and
avant-garde music, opera and even popular music. Their specialization and focus
on the madrigal idiom has inspired their unique set-up of singing, while seated in a
semi-circle, without a conductor.
Through the direction of Mark Anthony Carpio, the corps of composers and choral
arrangers of the UP Madrigal Singers continue to produce new compositions and
choral settings of Philippine and Asian songs, thus contributing to the growth of
choral literature in Asia.
A very capable countertenor on his own, Mr. Carpio embodies the Madz spirit
of discipline and dedication when it comes to perfecting his craft and sharing it
to others. He has spent the last several years conducting the Kilyawan Boys
Choir and leading them to several considerable successes and performances of
their own, recently in the 2008 World Choir Games in Graz, Austria. His
expertise and focus have also made him a sought-after choral clinician,
consultant, workshop master and judge for choral events both locally and
internationally.
What is love?
