The Sunday Breakfast Club to Brew Eco-Friendliness

There’s something stirringly beautiful about the mornings that Sundays make.

Swoon-worthy Adam Levine sings of a Sunday morning and how he never wants to leave. A certain classic film sits five students down in weekend detention and end up having the unlikeliest, most potent of friendships. On Sunday, God rested after building the world from scraps of nothing, and He marveled at Mother Nature conceived.

Now, something green, something local, and something fresh is coming up on a Sunday morning once again: The Sunday Breakfast Club launch party.

The Sunday Breakfast Club is a thoughtful project part of a new program under Youth for a Livable Cebu (YLC), aptly dubbed EcoFriends. This particular program promotes sustainable development and environmental conservation, and will serve as an avenue for the Cebuano community to be as eco-friendly as they can be.

Unlike the film it references, the Sunday Breakfast Club launch party is not based in a dull detention room and will be far from a gloom-and-doom ordeal. Taking place in the Talamban Leisure Center this coming Sunday, July 29, the event will offer meaningful ecology-linked conversations over delectable breakfast and free-flowing coffee.

The program involves a Cebuano art from trash installation, an ecobrick making booth, an exhibit showcasing Cebu’s steps to sustainability, and an eco-friendly bazaar featuring a motley of sustainable local shops such as Cebu Eco Fix, Amuma, and Human Heart Nature. Four good-natured talks will be given out by five notable speakers, as well.

The founder of Noble Folk, Michiko Nina Gandionco will speak about living the zero waste lifestyle. Talking about ecobricks as a solution to pollution will be Global Ecobrick Alliance certified trainer and Tutoring Club owner Jogen Mil. To discuss environmental activism is Cebu Eco Fix owner Alieth Bontuyan and National Youth Director of Let’s Do It! Philippines Denxybel Montinola. Finally, shedding light on the EcoFriends program itself will be the woman spearheading it, Stacie Evanne Cayanong.

With all these activities cooked up and ready for the weekend, The Sunday Breakfast Club launch party is bound to be a Sunday morning brewing with learning, engagement, and enjoyment. And surely, like Maroon 5’s frontman and the five students in detention, we’ll never want to leave.
