Para Kay Ate Ems

The Para Kay Ate Ems campaign is a fundraiser that aims to help Ateneo's beloved Emelie Escalera or Ate Ems. Beyond this campaign, ASSOC or Ateneo Social Services Organization for the Community provides services such as security for school events and annual programs like Secret Santa(food drive). ASSOC started this initiative as we were literally always close to Ate Ems since the unaccredited org's home base, Kostka Extension, is also where Ate Ems was stationed for a large part of her time in Ateneo. We hope to give back to her with your help as she is dear to our community. Ateneo knows Ate Ems very well as she was the kind and maalagang Ate stationed at the photocopying place in Kostka Extension. Ate Ems served in Ateneo for 14 years, until she had to resign from her work in 2017 due to rheumatoid arthritis. She is not able to pay for the maintenance medication prescribed to her, so we hope to raise money in order to help Ate Ems. This campaign aims to cover at least 3 months' worth of Ate Ems' medical expenses. Excess amount will be used for her operation costs. Together, we can help Ate Ems in a way that will not take much from us, but will certainly mean a lot to her. All proceeds will go to Ate Ems.
