The biggest partnership that AAICFI forged in the last quarter of Y2007 is with GK. AAI bought a
2,700 sqm lot Sitio Eldorado, Barangay Don Bosco, near Levitown Village and Better Living
Subdivision in Bicutan, Paranaque. The formal donation was made in December, 2007 to the GK
management. After so many meetings with the local government regarding roads, drainages,
passing through spaces, the house building finally started in March, 2008. The area is called
AAI-GK village with 4 clusters of 24 dwellings each or a total of 96 dwelling units.

The building of a multi-purpose hall was also sponsored by AAI in Y2010; this was blessed and
inaugurated in June 10, 2010 with the presence of GK’s Head, Tony Meloto, Barangay Captain
Teodoro Virata and Paranaque Mayor Jun Bernabe. This now serves as the venue of different GK
activities like the Sibol School for pre-schoolers, meetings, parties and other livelihood projects
for the beneficiaries. The project completed last 2014.
