A

total of 96 boys traversed their way to manhood through the circumcision drive held at Brgy.
Talaban, Himamaylan City, Negros Occidental last April 9, 2016. The beneficiaries of the said
activity included the pupils of Talaban Elementary School and some of the residents of the said
barangay. The event was made possible through the collective efforts of the following sponsors:
Phoenix Philippines Foundation, Rotary Club of Bacolod (North, Metro Bacolod, Marapara and Silay),
Our Lady of Snows Batch '66, and Barangay Council of Talaban. They also tapped some volunteers
from Tambal-USLS, H.A.B.L.O.N. through Dr. Gregorio Anastacio Rufon, Jr. (OA Batch 11), Queen of
Peace Parish, AMSA-WVSU, and the Order of Asclepius represented by Charles Jebb Juanitas (OA
Batch 38) and Roger John Astrolabio (OA Batch 39). To date, there are a total of 143 individuals who
benefitted the circumcision drive since its kick-off.#
