Jonathan Bangoy or JB is a senior copywriter at J Romero.
I've worked with him a few months there and I've seen his rise from an eager OJT to one of the most successful copywriters in the country. Unlike J. Romero alumni, he was a rising star and had achieved what we at that agency can only dream of - stardom. He was the Philippines official delegate for the Young Lions at Cannes, France this year. He even graced the cover of Adobo Magazien with his art director partner - Gigay.
Last September 29, he had a seizure and fell into a coma.
He is a father of 2, one a newborn.
He had been on respirator for 17 days and had already maxed out his health insurance.
His friends at the Advertising world are organizing a rock concert to raise funds for his family.
Titled Paper Scissors, Rock. The concert will feature different bands from advertising agencies pledging their support. Sandwich, one of the premier rock bands in the country is scheduled to perform. Moonstar88 and Imago is also performing.
The concert will be on October 28, 2008 at Mag:net High Street for 350 pesos.
Proceeds will go to JB's family.
We're all praying for his fast recovery. Last we heard he's already awake from his coma and was already starting to talk.
