On September 4, 2024, we gathered at the JC Hub at LKG Tower to celebrate the 67th birthday of Mr. Cesar Averia Jr., President and CEO of EDI Staffbuilders International, Inc. (EDI), a subsidiary of John Clements Consultants, Inc. (JCCI). The event, attended by the JCCI-EDI team, was a simple affair that reflected the deep respect and admiration for Mr. Averia’s leadership and contributions.
Celebration Highlights
The celebration began with a warm welcome to all guests. They admired the beautifully decorated space, which conveyed a sense of festivity and joy. The highlight of the afternoon was the delicious feast. We enjoyed traditional Filipino lechon, a roasted pig that is a staple at major celebrations. Alongside the lechon, we served tasty dishes like palabok, a Filipino noodle dish known for its rich flavors.
Employees from EDI and John Clements mingled and enjoyed the food. Laughter and camaraderie filled the air. This rare opportunity allowed everyone to come together as a family, united in their appreciation for Mr. Averia. The event offered a chance to share stories, create lasting memories, and strengthen bonds.
A Memorable Address and Sweet Finale
One special moment was when Mr. Averia took the stage. Known for his humility and approachable nature, he expressed heartfelt gratitude to everyone for celebrating his special day with him. He acknowledged his team’s hard work and dedication, noting that EDI and John Clements achieve success through collective effort.
“Today is not just about celebrating my birthday,” Mr. Averia said. “It’s about celebrating the incredible team that makes EDI Staffbuilders what it is. I am deeply grateful for each one of you and for the contributions you make every day. Thank you for being here and for making this day truly special.”
Another highlight was the presentation of a beautifully decorated birthday cake. As we brought out the cake, everyone gathered to sing “Happy Birthday” to Mr. Averia. We then shared the cake with all guests, adding a sweet touch to the celebration.
A Fitting Tribute
As the afternoon closed, the event’s success was clear. The birthday celebration of Mr. Cesar Averia was more than a party; it reflected the respect, admiration, and love employees have for their leader. The day was filled with joy, gratitude, and renewed purpose. Everyone left the venue with smiles on their faces and warmth in their hearts.
The celebration served as a fitting tribute to a man who leads with integrity, kindness, and vision. Mr. Averia’s 67th birthday will be remembered not only for the delicious food and festivities but for the spirit of unity and appreciation it embodied.
