DAVAO CITY—Around 200 football players from this city will converge this Sunday for what they call as DFAid—a one-day football festival aimed at raising funds for Davao’s flood victims.
DFAid is a project of the Davao Football Association in cooperation with the Davao Football Community, ABS-CBN Davao and Bravetower Promotions. Davao Football Association president Edward “Chaya” Lam called on all clubs and stakeholders to support the fund-raising project in an impromptu meeting last Sunday at the Tionko Field.
The call for DFAid raised positive response from Davao’s football community. The DFAid tournament will be staged at the Crocs Football Field at the Crocodile Park inside the sprawling Riverfront property along Maa Diversion Road.
Games start at 2:00 in the afternoon and will end with the formal turnover of donation to representatives of the ABS-CBN Davao for distribution to the victims of the July 29 flashfloods in Matina.
The DFAid will be accepting cash and in-kind donations during the fun games from all football aficionados as well as the rest of Davao’s sporting community.
“We hope to give the message to everyone that the sports community of Davao is not only concerned about playing games. We are also here to lend a hand and share our blessings,” said DFAid volunteer organizer Neil Bravo.
For donations to DFAid, please contact Alex Adolfo (09427870199), Christian Ea (09237280441), Buboy Arrieta (09177053202)and Neil Bravo (09324215575).
