History
The Friends of Bislig Association was established during the first reunion of friends and former schoolmates from Mangagoy, Bislig, Surigao del Sur, Philippines, at the Kamayan Restaurant in Manila, Philippines, in October, 2000. It began with a main objective of uniting former friends and schoolmates from Mangagoy who were based in Manila,Philippines. As soon as it was established, former friends and schoolmates who were based in other parts of the world heard about the association and expressed interest in joining and have joined since then. The current officers of the association were the original officers who held the same positions at its inception. The founders of the association were: Mario T. Buenaventura, Bobby S. Kanapi, Agnes Asido-Sarmiento, Vicky Morelos-Rico, Edna Gawat-de Leon, Vicente "Boyet" Castillo III, Ramon Villa, Lyle Arcaya, and Rose Morelos, Bong Faustino, Cheri Castillo-Formoso, Manny Garcia, Tony Garcia, Josephine "Joey" Castillo-Deocareza, Roxanne Abano-Jocson, Rey Santos, William Virtucio, Sonny Borja, Jess Cosico, and Inday "Angie" Canubida.
Mission
The original objective was to unite former friends and schoolmates from Mangagoy, Bislig, Surigao del Sur, Philippines, who were based in Manila, Philippines, which had since been revised to include former friends, schoolmates, and all those who cherish the memory of Bislig from all over the world. The association has gone international. It is a non-profit organization whose main objectives are the unification of its members through civic and social functions, and the provision of scholarship grants to deserving students to aid in their pursuit of a high school education at John Bosco College, Mangagoy, Bislig, Surigao del Sur, Philippines.
