Rob Paglieri

Vice-President - Elect Candidate
 

To My Esteemed Friends and Fellow Member’s of the Holy Spirit Filipino Society, I am seeking your help and support to become your next Vice President.

I am a graduate of Menlo College & SBA and have been working in the Commercial Real Estate field for the past sixteen years.

My wife Rica, daughter Angelina (Angie) and I have been privileged to have been associated with our vibrant Filipino Community at Holy Spirit Parish and its school.

I’ve had the distinct pleasure and honor to have represented our Society as the Director of Membership and Operations Manager for the past two years.

Of which thanks to the fine stewardship of Mr. Geoff Saturnio, our incumbent President, we’ve successfully maintained and embellished the vitality of the Filipino community and its ongoing relationship with our Parish and the school. 

I have also been privileged to have served and continue to serve as member of the Holy Spirit School Board.  I am your current Chairperson for the School’s Safety Committee.

That being said as your Vice President, I will continue to work diligently with leadership and vision to promote, strengthen and continue our ‘strong relationship’ and ‘mutual cooperation’ that exists within the Parish, the school and the Filipino Society.

I will work close in hand with the new President and the newly elected Officers to implement a forthright plan and a vision to strengthen our membership, streamline and aggressively promote our fund raiser’s and to further grow our Scholarship Programs in order to insure that our Society will continue on as a viable non profit, charitable organization that brings together people of Filipino ancestry at Holy Spirit Church.

I would also like to incorporate a plan to celebrate and promote our ‘Filipino youth’ within our Holy Spirit community.  This would be achieved by electing a ‘youth advocate’ to join our strategic meetings as an officer of the Society.

I firmly believe that 2009 will be a water shed year for the ‘next generation’ of Filipino’s to step forward to carry on our wonderful legacy and mission created over a impromptu pot luck gathering at Mr. Joe Palma’s residence in the summer of 1978.

I will look forward to your kind support. 

In Christ


Best Regards,

Rob
