Hakab na! Nueva Ecija 2015

As part of the National Breastfeeding Awareness Month in August, Nueva Ecija Breastfriends has organized its first Hakab Na Nueva Ecija! 2015 event.  This is a breastfeeding activity that seeks to promote the importance of providing proper support to breastfeeding mothers.  

For last year's Hakab Na!, 1,772 mothers simultaneously latched their babies in different gatherings  for 6 locations nationwide.  This year we are targeting more than that with 14 registered locations to join the event. 

Hakab Na 2015 – Nueva Ecija is the 1st Hakab Na event in the province and will be held on August, 1, 2015 (Saturday), 9:00 am at the Human Heart Nature Cabanatuan branch, Maharlika Highway, Cabanatuan City.  During the activity, breastfeeding moms will be latching their babies all at the same time. There will also be short talks about breastfeeding management and other parent and baby related topics.  We will do this in coordination with Breastfeeding Pinays group - a local online community that support breastfeeding and Big Latch On – an international activity where moms will simultaneously latch on their babies.

THERE IS NO REGISTRATION FEE, However if you like to avail the T-SHIRT a fee of P220.00 will be collected. DEADLINE for payments is on July 20,2015. If you registered and paid after July 20, we MIGHT NOT be able to have the souvenir shirt included in your Hakab Na kit on Aug. 1. Should that happen we can send shirt to you, you just have to pay for shipping cost. Rest assured that we will try our best to have all the shirts ready on event date.
