CEBU CITY -- The Cebu Federation of Beat Journalists (CFBJ), an organization composed of legitimate news practitioners from established media outfits in Cebu will hold its ceremonial shoot-for-a-cause with no less than the Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Police General Debold Sinas on Tuesday, December 1 at the Cebu Wonderland Shooting Range.
CFBJ president Arnold Bustamante, who is also the Defense Press Corps president said that that they are grateful for the undying support of the PNP to Cebu Media and CFBJ to launch its first fundraising event three months after the new officers took over.
"We are an organization with over a hundred members, when the new officers thought of organizing a fundraising event, Police Regional Office (PRO-7) regional director Brigadier General Albert Ignatius Ferro offered to help and this shooting competition is a realization of our plans in the organization," Bustamante said.
For its first major event which is the shoot-for-a-cause, General Sinas will lead the ceremonial opening of the shooting competition. Police personnel from the Lapu-Lapu City Police Office are the participants of the first leg of the said competition.
Bustamante added that all the funds that will be raised at the event will serve as the support fund for the CFBJ's emergency and health program.
"The organization with its new officers is
happy to announce that General Sinas is our guest of honor on the ceremonial
shoot on December 1," Bustamante said.
The first leg of the three-day shooting competition is set on December 18-20, but due to the availability of General Sinas, the ceremonial shoot has been moved to an earlier date.
General Sinas served as the PRO 7 regional director in 2018 and 2019.
