Mr. Teodorico Haresco has been instrumental in the conceptualization and practical development of the Philippines’ President’s Bridge Program (PBP), which has been credited with energizing the Philippines’ rural economic development. The President’s Bridge Program in the Philippines has been used as a model for bridge programs in such countries as Siberia, Sri Lanka, and Papua New Guinea. Mr. Teodorico Haresco’s personal investment in the Special Zone in Peace and Development phase of the President’s Bridge Program earned him particular attention: Mr. Haresco was a noted vital factor in PBP, aptly dubbed the “Bridges of Hope.” Under the watchful eye of Teodorico Haresco, the project completed 526 bridges nine months ahead of schedule, no small feat for the country’s only dedicated bridging project.
A graduate of such economic institutions as De La Salle University in Manila and McGill University in Montreal, Mr. Teodorico Haresco is the Chairman of Winace Holdings Philippines, the mother company of several subsidiaries powerful in their own rights, including Winsource Solutions, Inc., Winace Land Development Co., One White Beach Land Development Corp., Chaikofi, Inc., Eco-Coral & Technostrat Corp and Boracay I-Land Group, Inc.
Teodorico Haresco is a man dedicated to country, family, and community. The happily married father of four is the principal developer of a nationwide scholarship fund for children of slain journalists. Teodorico Haresco is credited in “The British Legacy to the Philippines: 425 Years of Philippine-British Relations” as one of 19 Filipinos who have directly contributed to Philippine development through work driven by commitment, dedication, and nationalism.
Bago dumating Ang Kasangga sa buhay namin, para kaming basura dito sa Luneta. This was how a Rizal Park ambulant vendor described their lot.
Lucy Galvez lamented that they often fall reluctant victims to loan sharks because lack of capital drive them into getting loans from lending exploiters who charge exorbitant interests.
Galvez, project coordinator of the Rizal Park Vendors Association, Inc., added that running away to evade law enforcers have also become part of their daily working lives.
Hirap ka na sa pagkayod maghapon, hinuhuli pa kaming parang kriminal, she bewailed.
Galvez is thankful that Ang Kasangga sa Kaunlaran, Inc., or Ang Kasangga, entered their lives and they became recipient of the corporations micro-lending program.
Ang Kasangga provided them with the necessary capital and now they have graduated from being ambulant vendors to being store operators at the national park.
Ngayon, may sariling pwesto na kami. Higit sa lahat, may pag-asa na, Galvez said.
Ang Kasangga is a non-stock, non-profit civic and service oriented corporation formed from the incorporators common ideology that business is not all about money and profit; it should also serve as a vehicle for ensuring that there is social justice for the poor, the needy and the suffering population.
Ang Kasangga also believes that a fully developed micro-entrepreneurship will empower the poor people and become a backbone of the economy.
Since its inception in 2004, Ang Kasangga has grown strong from 45,000 to 260,000 card-bearing members, most of whom are sari-sari stores and food stall owners, and market vendors, jeepney, tricycle and bus drivers and operators, and blind masseurs.
For the past years, Ang Kasangga has untiringly provided a micro-lending program for marginalized barangay-based micro-entrepreneurs, a scholarship program for 46 children of slain Filipino journalists, a human resource-building program, a livelihood and housing program, a fiscal program for savings, among others.
The strong conviction that micro-entrepreneurs, particularly those from the grassroots who are a marginalized sector, should have representation in Congress to ensure that their concerns would be heard and addressed prompted Ang Kasangga to register as a party list group in the coming May 10 synchronized elections.

Posted by coach outlet at January 8, 2011, 9:30 amAt last firemen have put out a big forest fire in California. Since then, they have been trying to find out how the fire began. Forest fires are often caused by broken glass or by cigarette ends which people carelessly throw away. Yesterday the firemen examined the ground carefully, but were not able to find any broken glass. They were also quite sure that a cigarette end did not start the fire. This morning, however, a firemen accidentally discovered the cause. He noticed the remains of a snake which was wound round the electric wires of a 16,000-volt power line. In this way, he was able to solve the mystery. The explanation was simple but very unusual. A bird had snatched up the snake from the ground and then dropped it on to the wires. The snake then wound itself round the wires. When it did so, it sent sparks down to the ground and these immediately started a fire.
