FIRE IGNITED: DESPITE THE DAMAGE, HUMANITY IS RESTORED

April 06, 2019, Saturday – A fire hit a residential area in Sitio Ibaba, Barangay Sta. Clara, Batangas City. According to the reports, the fire started from one of the resident’s houses and quickly spread because homes in the area were made of light and combustible materials.

This incident ruined the hearts of the affected residents while the people of Batangas and neighboring areas extended sympathy to them.

Last April 09, 2019, Tuesday, the team from Infinity Web Solutions – Best SEO Marketing Philippines, went to Bolbok OCVAS to bring donations in kind and offer moral support to the affected families. We join the efforts of our fellow Batangueños who offered their help to the people of Sta. Clara. Not only is it an application of teamwork that we learned inside and outside our office but also it is a manifestation that no man is an island. It is a cliché, but there is no ‘I’ in ‘Teamwork.’ You cannot do everything by yourself unless you’re a superhuman.

Everything we collected in kind was made possible by the cooperation of the whole team. We count the items as blessings shared to those who need it more than we do. It was not that big but to think that it will reach somebody and serves as a help to pacify their weary hearts, it’s already a bonus for us. We know we can’t mend at once what they’re feeling right now, but we strongly hold on to the belief that a kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.

People would always say that you cannot give what you don’t have. We believe in that. If you don’t have compassion, then you cannot give anything at all. We’re not talking about money, food, clothes or any in-kind donations here. There may be people out there who are less fortunate. But everyone can send them prayers, and we think that that is the best offer we could give. Every good deed counts, making us more human than we think we are — every little act of kindness matters.

In times like this, we can prove that humanity isn’t dead after all. We are also able to show the Filipino spirit of ‘Bayanihan.’ No fire can burn our reputation. Resilient as they say, we indeed are. We are Filipinos, remember that. If someone is in need, we don’t falter to lend our hands.

We all know how it feels like to lose something fundamental to us. Starting from scratch is tough. It is like you are back to the time when you were learning to walk all by yourself. You have no idea what will happen next. You may fall, stumble, and lose hope, but the good thing is that you know SOMEBODY UP THERE is going to catch you. So go on.

From the bottom of our hearts, Infinity Web Solutions – the management and the rest of the team, sincerely extend our love, prayers, and care to the victims of Sta. Clara fire incident.
We will continue to pray that each of you will hold on the power of faith, hope, and love. Together, we will rise, and with God’s grace, we can start again.
