ANDIA in the Rainy Month of July.
Summer is done; the rainy season has begun.
As the saying goes, "when it rains, it pours", ANDIA in this rainy month of July has just experienced what this quote means.
On one Saturday, ANDIA Execom was supposedly meant to meet for its regular monthly meeting but turned out to be a day of series of gatherings/events:
1.Discussion of ANDIA Homecoming details; - Final Date: December 6, 2025, Saturday.
-Inclusion: a) Mass Tree Planting (responding to the call for environmental protection and ANDIA's contribution for the future generation).
b) Medical-Dental Outreach Program with Batch 75, Batch 77, ALUIA and the ANDIA- Association of Notre Dame Institute Alumni, Aringay, La Union for a greater impact and worthwhile collaborations.
2. Collaborative meeting with newly elected and inducted NDI PATCA officers to establish possible partnership for the betterment of NDI and students (Damers)
3. Creation of the very first (1st) ANDIA Scholars Association or Society and election and induction of it very first officers as well. (Yes ANDIA has 50+++ scholars). ANDIA has to take care, mentor, equip and unify their own scholars, considering them just like our own children.
4. Presentation/Approval of final design for the on-going improvement of the new NDI canteen.
5. Approval of NDI's Water System improvement project of Batch 1975 (2025 golden jubilarian)
6. The need to design and improve NDI's Activity Area (a requirement for NDI's Recertification this coming October)
7. With the increased number of enrollees in the senior class, additional classroom is needed. One room is available but needs floor refurbishing. This is open for batch project adoption and sponsorship. KNOCK! KNOCK!
8. Bingo Bonanza will be held on its new schedule: at exactly 1PM on July 26 - Saturday. This is an ANDIA fund raising project for new NDI canteen and ground improvement)
9. ANDIA Sportsfest launching will also be held in the morning on July 26.
Working towards ANDIA-Association of Notre Dame Institute Alumni, Aringay, La Union goal this year - translating ANDIA's vision to reality.
Thank you our fellow alumni for your never-ending support to ANDIA in all its endeavors.
God bless us all and see you all in our events.
