CIELO DEL ROSARIO

CIELO DEL ROSARIO
Cielo was the “baby” in our group. The youngest amongst the trustees, she started her board stint as a Silver Jubilarian and gifted us, along with her batch, with the last face-to-face Velada before lockdown. And what a Velada it was.. complete with multiple LED screens and fantabulous costumes, high tech wizardry!
Cielo also gifted us with the first ever “AAA BABY!”. Her daughter Ava, was a de facto Board meeting attendee, delighting all of us when she would coo and look adorable during our Zoom meetings. Motherhood sits well with Cielo, who never looked fazed nor frazzled despite the many demands on her time.
As Assistant Treasurer in 2020 and 2021, Cielo had a keen eye for spotting corrections or calculation errors in the financial statements. She was also innovative in finding ways to help us stretch our thin budgets. Cielo likewise headed the Chapters Committee charged with churning out monthly bulletins to and from the different AAA chapters nationwide.
With the recently-launced AAA website, Cielo took charge of Shopaholics, the online shopping journal of products by alumnae and partner associations. The website’s most visited section, Cielo took care of vetting and selecting products to be featured and managing their advertising schedules and fees.
Enjoy the many faceted joys of motherhood, Cielo! We will miss our AAA Mother and Child tandem!
