Wedding with a Cause
Love does bloom in unexpected places. Who would’ve thought that the love that Jay and Eena shared for charitable causes such as the Gawad Kalinga Foundation whose aim is to build a nation without slums would bring them to the altar?
The two met while helping Bicolanos rebuild their lives and regain their dignity after a series of calamities devastated the region.
To show their commitment to each other and the Gawad Kalinga mission, the two got married in a GK-built chapel and on the much raved-about date, 7-7-07.
They chose the date not because it’s believed to be fortuitous but because it represented the GK mission: To build 700,000 homes in 7,000 communities in 7 years, with 2010 as the target date for delivery.
