Hack the Climate Pushing for Clean Technology in Leyte
In the commemoration of the 3rd
anniversary of Typhoon Haiyan, Hack the Climate will stage its first ever Clean
Technology Hackathon and Training happening in Palo, Leyte and Tacloban City.
It is part of the 8th NICP ICT Summit 2016, in partnership with the
National ICT Confederation of the Philippines (NICP), DOST Region 8, Philippine
Science High School – Eastern Visayas Campus, Seed4com, Move.ph, Millenia
Suites, ThinkLab and Unionbank of the Philippines.
Hack the Climate is a climate change
themed Hackathon that is formed out of the desire of a two Princeton University
College Students, named Michael Lanchanski and Jacob Scheer to help the
Philippines in their battle for climate change through Technology and
Innovation. With the help of their Filipino
counterparts, Elaine Cedillo, Diego Jose Ramos and Rizzel Jill Dy, Hack the
Climate was born in June 2013.
“Hack
the Climate in Leyte is our 5th since we started and we hope that we
can bring this project across the country” said Elaine Cedillo, the lead
project coordinator for this leg.
“Hack the Climate is more than just a
hackathon, it is our advocacy. Educating the students and young professionals
about the adverse effects of climate change while challenging the developers to
create a solution for climate change adaptation or mitigation, and through that,
the participants are empowered to do something to help our environment,” she
added
THE
CLEAN TECHNOLOGY PROJECTS AND THE HACKATHON
This year’s Hackathon is dubbed as
“Hack the Climate Cleantech-Loban” and it will be a three-part event. They will
be launching their first solar e-Learning facility for Alternative Learning
System and a Solar Night Lamp assembly livelihood training program for the
out-of-the school youth and partner NGO’s, plus a conference – hackathon about
Climate Change Mitigation and CleanTech.
Philippine Toy Library located at Palo
District 1, Barugo Leyte with more than 100 learners and at Pambujan, Samar
with more than 90 learners will be the beneficiaries of an e-Learning set-up
consisting of laptops from Huawei Philippines powered by solar panels which
will be donated by Unionbank of the Philippines through their Go Beyond
CSR. The Solar Night Lamp that will be
produced during the training will be donated to a fishing community in and
around Tacloban.
The hackathon, a coding
marathon, happening on November 9-10, 2016 at Philippine Science High School in
Palo, Leyte, involves a specific theme where participants will be creating web
or mobile applications, or hardware solutions. The conference happening simultaneously with the
hackathon features speakers to educate and enlighten the audience to what
is happening with our environment and how it affects each and every one of us,
and different technologies which can be used to help in creating solutions.
Clean
Techloban is supported by the Ramos Peace and Development Foundation, Inc. and
the OML Center for Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Management
Foundation, Inc. and organized by Redwizard Events Management. For more

The Many Faces of Fatherhood at SM Supermalls
This would be the first time after so many years (perhaps more 20+) that we'll be celebrating Father's Day with my Dad. SM Bacolod has been our place for celebration here in Negros since it's very accessible and there are a lot of new stores and restaurants opening these past few weeks. Last month, I was blessed to celebrate my birthday at Vikings.
Now, we are again excited to celebrate Father's Day at SM as a weekend
of fun awaits Dads everywhere as SM Supermalls celebrates Father’s Day, with great
gifts, hearty dinners and exciting entertainment treats all set to make the
occasion more special and memorable.
From June
17 to 19, Foodie Dads and their families can go on an exciting culinary tour
with SM Supermall’s wide variety of restaurants and food stops offering family
packages and special treats to ensure Pops is filled with good food on his
special day.
Whether
he’s a craft beer enthusiast or a casual lager fan, there’s something to suit Beer-Happy
Daddy perfectly at World Brews, where premium beers and liquors around the
world are available. Then raise a glass to Dad with discounted brewskies in
selected SM Foodcourt and get other cool freebies when you treat your Dad in
select restaurants at SM malls. McDonald’s will also be having a free
#paChickenMcdoforDad for every happy meal purchase on June 19, 3-5pm in all
their branches exclusive at SM malls.
For the Car
Crazy Daddy, race to the Keys to the City Motor Show for an amazing display of
the coolest rides. From hot rods and vintage vehicles to exotic automobiles and
concept cars, it’ll be a fast and furious Father’s Day.
For the
techie Dads, get a chance to win cool prizes by posting your funniest #DadJokes
and #DadQuotes, and your best lookalike #MiniDad Pops on the PlayStation or
Xbox. Nothing says “I love you” like a friendly battle of the generations.

kind of Dad, there's a perfect activity for the whole family to enjoy and
remember for a long time afterwards. Because this June, it’s all about Dad this
Father’s Day at SM Supermalls!

Mothers and Babies from the South Gathered for the Great Cloth Diaper Change
The Great Cloth Diaper Change (GCDC) by South PiNanays (SPiN) was held at Festival Mall, Alabang last April 23, 2016. It was a great success with 69 mommy and baby pairs who simultaneously changed baby diapers to celebrate this worldwide gathering.. This event was done in partnership with Modern Cloth Nappying Pinays (MCNP), Breastfeeding Pinays, Mommy Talk Philippines, and Newlyweds@Work.
The GCDC is an annual worldwide event created by the Real Diaper Association that aims to spread awareness about the benefits of cloth diapering, advocating cloth diapers as an environment-friendly choice for families. This year, there were 235 registered GCDC events in 19 countries, eight were held in the Philippines, one of which was the SPiN event in Alabang.
Aside from the actual diaper change, there was also a mini-bazaar featuring small mom-owned businesses that offered family-friendly products. There were also talks about cloth diapering, breastfeeding, and oral care and dental health for children.
There were also free fluoride applications for the kids and free haircuts for the mommies and daddies. Lots of raffle and game prizes were given away throughout the day. Sponsors for the SPiN GCDC were Festival Mall, David's Salon, Sylergy, Sydenase, Tempra, Green Cross, Zonrox, PeeWee Explorers, The Nest, Kidsmile Pediatric Dental Clinic, and Ingente-Valencerina Photography.
If you are wondering what SPiN is all about, it was Established in October 2013 and officially registered as an NGO last July 2015 as South PiNanays Women Empowerment, Inc. (SPiN). It is mainly a breastfeeding and parenting support group for mothers and families living in Parañaque, Muntinlupa, Las Piñas, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, and Quezon. The group aims to educate, support, and empower the community, one baby, one mom, one family at a time.
