Docomo Pacific has signed up as a sponsor to an event focused on benefiting those recently stricken by Super Typhoon Mawar on Guam and Rota.<\/p>\n

Docomo Pacific has become a silver sponsor to the upcoming Un Marianas Dinner Concert with $1,500 donation to the Music of the Marianas Association.<\/p>\n

The Un Marianas Dinner Concert will be held at the Aqua Resort Club poolside on July 14, with the funds raised to be donated to Typhoon Mawar victims. Tickets are being sold at $100 per person throughout the island as MMA volunteers continue their efforts at selling tickets.<\/p>\n

The donation helps the group of island musicians get closer to their goal of sending construction-related supplies to Guam and Rota. According to MMA treasurer Gus Litulumar, their efforts are focused on helping island neighbors get back to normalcy. \u201cDuring [Super Typhoon] Yutu, we too struggled without basic amenities like air-conditioning and so we feel for our brothers and sisters on those islands enduring this now,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Docomo Pacific is a reliable stakeholder as they\u2019ve come out to help on various occasions, according to Ross Manglona, resident executive of the Indigenous Affairs Office that is assisting the nonprofit group in its coordination efforts. \u201cIt\u2019s the relationships we\u2019ve maintained over the years. Their staff are composed of our locals who grew up here and we should be proud of that fact,\u201d Manglona added.<\/p>\n

Brent Deleon Guerrero, Docomo Pacific\u2019s brand manager, said that, although the experience of each passing typhoon doesn\u2019t get easier, \u201cit is through our community and the power of music that we find the strength to rebuild and come back stronger. It is this essence that our promise of being \u2018Better Together\u2019 stems from, and we are happy to be a part of the cause with the hope that it will inspire others to do the same.\u201d<\/p>\n

Manglona said the CNMI community is fortunate to have stakeholders like Deleon Guerrero and his colleagues at Docomo Pacific that come out when they are needed most. So far, about 200 tickets to the dinner concert have been sold and \u201chopefully, we continue selling aggressively as the event gets closer. I remain confident that our community will come out and for sure we\u2019re going to have a grand ole\u2019 time,\u201d he said.
