Crowd Funding for an Outdoor Cinema in the Philippines

From polakpotrafi.pl Quite a few people requested synopsis of what was published yesterday, so here it is: Most children in the Philippine countryside have never seen a cinema screen with their own eyes. We’re on a mission to change that and so decided to organize a mobile outdoor cinema in Siquijor, the island that became our home a while ago, and possibly beyond. Touring the island with a projector and audio equipment apart from entertainment is meant to provide educational features as well, mostly in the field of environmental protection and animal welfare. We believe there is quite a lot to do in these topics. We are a group of travelers and bloggers in love with Asia in general and the Philippines in particular. We’ve lived here a few years now and the country as a temporary home has offered us so much that it is only natural to give something back and this is another initiative in this spirit. Previously, we were involved in disaster relief and assistance efforts directed

Cenomar

A Certificate of No Marriage Record (CENOMAR) is simply what its name implies. It is a certification issued by the PSA stating that a person has not contracted any marriage. Also called a certificate of No Record of Marriage or Certificate of Singleness. In legal definitions for interpersonal status, a single person is someone who has never been married. A person who was previously married and was divorced or widowed is usually considered an "unmarried" person. If a marriage is annulled, however, or it is found to have been void ab initio (i.e. not valid in law to start with), and assuming the person was not married previously, that individual is single, rather than unmarried. When requesting for a CENOMAR, the interested party shall provide the following information to facilitate verification and issuance of certification. This certificate is issued by Philippine Statistics Authority CENOMAR (Certificate of No Marriage) Complete name of the person Complete nam
