Pageant for a Cause, Lipa City Eco-Gay 2012

“Imagine how boring life would be if we were all the same. My idea of a perfect world is one in which we appreciate each other’s differences; one in which we are all equal but definitely not the same.”  – Barbara Streisand

Lipa City Fiesta will not be complete without the participation of Ala -Eh Gay Lipenos. And yesterday the annual Eco-Gay competition pageant and coronation night was held at SM City Lipa Event Center.

Rexie Luancing, the President of Ala-Eh Gay Lipenos, said “We are not doing this pageant just for prestige. We do this because we want to share our talents and to help fellow Lipenos who are in need. Katulad po noong nakaraang taon, bahagi po ng nakalap naming pondo ay itinulong namin sa ilang pasyente ng Granja Hospital. Kami ay nakiki-isa sa layunin ng lokal na pamahalaan sa pagtulong sa mga nangangailangan at gayundin sa pagsalba sa kalikasan.”

40% – Money Contribution
15% – Talent
