Although the season of giving is only a couple of months away, Alejandro's Filipino restaurant, together with RCTV,  jump started the tradition by culminating its month-long book drive "Good Food for Great Thoughts" last month.

The books donated from the drive were turned over last September 25 to the new library of the Nehemiah School of Opportunities in Guadalupe.

"RCTV is not only about real people and real happenings, it's also about real issues...we jumped in to this opportunity to help the community", said Michael Solon(Presdent & CEO of Mediaone Creative, Inc.) on RCTV collaborating with Alejandros' on this project. Alejandro's CFO, Maureen Yap mused, "It's a way of giving back to the community and share the blessings we've received."

"Good Food for Great Thoughts" is Alejandro's project to celebrate its 18th anniversary. Giving the customers a chance to reach out to the less fortunate, every customer received a 50% discount on the restaurant's famed crispy for every 3 books donated.
