MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!…from Buong Lupa Integrated School mangyan learners.

To our AMAZING donors and sponsors,
Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude! 💕
Because of YOUR generosity, our Mangyan families celebrated Christmas with joy and full hearts. During the Christmas party with parents, each mangyan learner received:
4 kilos of rice, noodles, sardines and candies.

Throughout the year, your support continues to provide 3x weekly feeding for our learners.

Sharing with you some photos and videos—this is the IMPACT of your kindness. You’re not just feeding bodies, you’re nourishing dreams, building hope, and transforming futures.
Every meal shared, every smile you see here, every child who can focus on learning—it’s all because YOU CHOSE TO CARE.
Thank you for being our partners in this mission. Thank you for seeing these families, for believing in them, and for standing with us.
May God bless you abundantly this Christmas season and throughout the New Year!

Thank you Sis for your generous gift of coins to our Mangyan learners. God bless you!

Friends, I’m collecting coins to buy rice for indigenous learners this Christmas season and the rest of the school year.

Your coins make a real difference.

- Just 51 cents in coins can buy 1 kilo of rice for Mangyan learners

This Christmas, let’s turn our coins into nourishment and hope for these children. Every coin counts toward supporting their education and health.

Join me in this mission of giving.

Thank you, and Merry Christmas! 🎄

Mirayan Elementary School Indigenous Feeding Program Update

We’re delighted to share that our feeding program for indigenous learners is thriving!

Three times a week , our IP students enjoy balanced, nutritious meals featuring malunggay (moringa) leaves—packed with vitamins and minerals to help them grow strong and stay focused in school.

This program succeeds because of our wonderful community:

- Parents generously contribute firewood and fresh vegetables from their gardens
- Volunteer parents take turns with cooking and meal preparation
- Two dedicated volunteers work tirelessly to ensure smooth operations (₱500/month each)

Our IP learners are learning responsibility through:

- Washing dishes after meals
- Keeping the feeding area clean
- Cleaning cooking equipment (casseroles and woks)
- Properly drying and storing plates

To our generous donors and sponsors: Your support makes this possible. You’re not just feeding children—you’re investing in their future, health, and education. Thank you for believing in our IP learners!

May God bless you abundantly.

📷Thanks Ma’am Maryjane Red

September Feeding Update - Buong Lupa Integrated School

We’re excited to share this update from our September feeding program at Buong Lupa Integrated School!

Our Mangyan learners proudly represented the school in their Type A drum and lyre uniforms during the founding anniversary parade of Gloria. It was a momentous occasion as they marched through town, showcasing their talents and school spirit.

When classes are not in session, we continue supporting our learners and their families through rice distribution, ensuring they have essential food supplies at home.

We extend our deepest gratitude to our donors and sponsors for your invaluable support. Your generosity continues to nourish these children both in school and at home, opening doors to opportunities like this. May God bless you abundantly for your kindness.
