The Philippine IATA Agents Travel Association (PIATA) and the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) Philippines Chapter will hold their first-ever collaborative fundraising concert, ERA: Healing Hearts, a landmark initiative dedicated to supporting survivors of recent calamities in Cebu.  

The concert will take place on 10 December at 7 p.m. at RJ Dusit Thani, featuring the iconic Lou Bonnevie alongside a lineup of celebrated artists. This historic collaboration marks the first time PIATA and PATA Philippines have united to spearhead a large-scale mental health and humanitarian mission for survivors of the earthquake in Bogo and typhoon-affected communities in Cotcot, Liloan and Talisay, Cebu.  

This meaningful event is made possible through the generous support of PAGCOR, SABRE, Bluewater Resorts and China Airlines. Their commitment to community healing and mental health advocacy is instrumental in bringing this initiative to life. 

While natural disasters leave visible scars in the form of destroyed homes and infrastructure, the emotional and psychological impact on survivors often goes unseen. Many children and adults continue to experience post-traumatic stress, emotional distress, and profound loss.  

To address this urgent need, a team of therapists, counselors and psychologists will conduct a three-day therapy program in Bogo, offering specialized sessions for both children and adults. This program aims to provide structured emotional support, a safe environment for expression, and a critical first step toward healing.  

Tickets are at the concert venue. Call 0917-5852213, 0927-3229997 or 0916-7937386.
