Korinna Chung ’96 invites you to a Kabbalah event happening in Manila:

Hello ISM Alumni,
High school is a time of self-discovery. It is often a map with gaps between what they learn in their classrooms
and the real world. We hope to help bridge that gap for some of our high school students through our five-day
summer internship (June 10th – 14th, 2012) with various companies in Manila.
Last year we were very fortunate to place over 120 ISM high school students with 30 companies (including
Alaska Milk, Asian Development Bank, Fed Ex, Hyatt Hotel and Casino, and Makati Medical Center). Demand for
this program has increased each year and we expect that to continue.
As alumni of ISM, you may own, be employed by, or know of a company interested in supporting this worthwhile
endeavor. If you are in a position to take one or more of our students at your company or know of an interested
company, please contact me, Doug McQueen, at mcqueend@ismanila.org. For more information on the Bearcat
Career Experience you may also take a look at our website http://bearcat-careers.ism-online.org/ in the
meantime.
Thank you very much for your support and I look forward to hearing from you.
Best Regards,
Doug McQueen

Juan Elizalde ’87 invites you to Aria, now in Manila:
Aria Cucina Italiana: Italy’s Best Flavors in the Philippines
Inspired by the coastal regions of the Mediterranean, Aria first opened its doors to Boracay in 2003. With its
tropical interiors and cozy ambiance, the Italian restaurant soon became a top destination for beach lovers
visiting the island.
Almost a decade later, Aria owners Juan Elizalde and Paolo Occhionero decided to bring Boracay’s finest to
Bonifacio Global City in Taguig. They have kept the original Boracay menu and added a few signature dishes.
“We only use the best and freshest ingredients—organic, whenever possible,” shares co-owner Juan Elizalde
‘87. “We have an Italian chef, we use many ingredients from Italy and even our wood fire oven was hand built
by an Italian pizza oven maker, so its about as authentic as you can get.”
Aria Cucina Italiana is located in Bonifacio High Street Central, Fort Bonifacio Global City. The restaurant is
open from 11AM to 11PM. For more information, visit the Facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/AriaCucinaItaliana/ and follow Aria on Twitter https://twitter.com/ariacucina
