WBO President Paco Valcarcel.
ALA Promotions President Michael Aldeguer has thanked the WBO for helping Z Gorres (Read: WBO MAKES GORRES' DREAM COME TRUE).
In his letter to the WBO, Aldeguer told WBO President Paco Valcarcel "we salute you and the entire staff of WBO as ably represented by Leon Panoncillo in Asia for your generous and humanitarian gesture in giving Z Gorres and his family some household appliances. It is indeed an act worth emulating by other boxing organization for a fallen warrior who once fought for a world title under your organization but unfortunately failed in his quest."
Gorres is currently recovering from a head surgery after he collapsed unconscious during his last fight in Las Vegas on November 13, 2009 that forced him leave boxing for good.
WBO has been known for its gift-giving 'WBO Kids Drugs Free campaign' that is being implemented worldwide.
