After our ocular visit to Cagbalete Island, we came home with a clearer picture of what the community needs most. 💛
As we prepare for our upcoming Cagbalete Outreach, we identified some of the top priorities based on what our team personally saw and learned during our visit to the community:
🥫 GROCERY & CANNED GOODS FOR FAMILIES
Rice, canned goods, noodles, coffee, sugar, and other non-perishable food items can go a long way in supporting families in the community.
🩴 SLIPPERS FOR THE KIDS
A simple pair of slippers is one of the priority needs we identified for the children. We’re collecting slippers in different kids’ sizes to bring during the outreach.
👕🧸 PRE-LOVED CLOTHES & TOYS ARE WELCOME TOO!
If you’re decluttering, we’d be happy to give your pre-loved clothes and toys a new home in Cagbalete. We just have one important request: please donate items that are clean, complete, and in very good condition.
For clothes, we encourage donating pieces that still have plenty of life left in them—ideally something another child or family can continue using for the next few years. For toys, please make sure they are clean, tidy, complete, and still safe to play with.
We kindly discourage donating items that are already heavily worn, damaged, stained, broken, or no longer suitable for use.
A simple rule we hope everyone can follow: If you would still be happy to give it to someone you personally know and care about, we’d be happy to receive it. 💛
Our goal isn’t simply to give away things we no longer need. We want every item we bring to the community to be something our beneficiaries can receive and use with dignity.
We truly appreciate your cooperation and understanding. 🙏
💌 Interested in donating? Send us a message! We’d be happy to coordinate with you.
