BAMBOO is bringing hope to remote villages in Mindanao via the Days of Peace campaign.

Here’s an excerpt from the INQUIRER.net Showbiz & Style article:

Lead vocalist Bamboo Mañalac, guitarist Ira Cruz, bassist Nathan Azarcon and drummer Vic Mercado expressed their support in song while lending a hand in distributing vitamin A drops and de-worming tablets to children who were missed out during routine immunization services.

Sitio Saramuray, which sits over sprawling hills in the hinterlands of Maguindanao, is almost four hours away from Cotabato City—a remote community run by the Moro Islamic Liberation Front.

“We want to express what we feel in the best way we can,” said Bamboo. “We don’t speak their dialect but we can use our songs to speak to them. Kayang-kaya, sama-sama, bata muna! (Together we can if we put children first).”
