A few days ago, on Monday, December 15, 2025, Pusong Pinoy Forever Foundation staff and the children with a history of congenital heart defects (Praise God! They are healed!) celebrated our 2025 PPFF Family Reunion. We were joined by the children's families. We had fun games for the children and heartfelt reflections from parents who are immensely grateful to God and all our donors who helped their children get their heart surgeries completed. As you can see, all these children are active and happy. They are going to school and excelling. No more medications. No more frequent doctor's visits. They are living a normal life. It's so wonderful!

So far, PPFF has helped 58 children. Some of the other children and their families were unable to join us because of long distances and other family commitments.

Please visit our website at www.pusongpinoyforever.foundation to help children with congenital heart defects get their heart surgeries. Any amount makes a difference.

May God prosper you and your family always. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

Happy 16th Anniversary to Pusong Pinoy Forever Foundation!

We praise and thank God for his great generosity as demonstrated by our donors. Due to all your generous support, PPFF has been able to sponsor heart surgeries for 50+ children diagnosed with congenital heart defects living in the Philippines. Please continue to pray for this vital work. ALL GLORY TO GOD!

The PPFF team and some children (joined by their families), who PPFF helped fund their heart surgeries, had a reunion a few days ago in Manila, Philippines. All the children are growing well and thriving. Amazing! We praise and thank God!

Also, thank you to all our donors who gave these children a chance to live life and pursue their education.

Because some of the children live far away, they were unable to join us. However, we look forward to seeing them at our next reunion.

I also met with some children who PPFF will help fund their heart surgeries this year. Please consider assisting these children and giving them a chance to live life.

Dear Pusong Pinoy Forever Foundation (PPFF) family and supporters,

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May this season bring you and your family love and unity in God, our Savior.

Year to date, we have sponsored and completed heart surgeries for 40+ children living in the Philippines. PPFF plans to sponsor another 10 children this coming year. I will meet with these children and their families during my visit at the end of December 2024. We are immensely grateful to God for providing funds to help these beautiful children with lifesaving heart surgeries. For as little as $3,000, a child with a congenital heart defect can undergo heart surgery to save their life.

Please continue to pray for this vital work; any financial assistance (www.pusongpinoyforever.foundation) you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Once again, all donations are fully tax deductible. Check out our page.
May God prosper you and your family for the greater glory of God.

Sincerely,
Violeta Seitz, FNP-BC

Meet Ysabelle and Franchesca, 7 and 12 years old, respectively, who had their heart surgeries done. Please say a prayer for their recovery.

Thank you to all our donors for helping children with congenital heart defects (CHD) fund their heart surgeries. May God prosper you and your family always.

Many more children with CHD need funding for their heart surgeries. You are invited to help these children. "The Lord hears the cry of the poor. Blessed be the Lord." Psalm 34

Pusong Pinoy Forever Foundation (PPFF) turns 13 years old today! All praise and glory to God!

We're starting a pilot study of foster care for poor and abandoned children in the Philippines. The length of the study is 6 to 12 months. Generous donors provided funding for this study.

PPFF "Bahay Pag-Asa" (House of Hope) is the name of the project.

This is an opportunity to help the poor. We invite you to join us. Our website is www.pusongpinoyforever.foundation

For several years, PPFF has been assisting children who are in need. In addition to funding the children's heart surgeries, we will do a pilot study to house poor and abandoned children. Based on our assessment, the children's needs are extensive, including food, clothing, shelter, education, social, and spiritual. PPFF will do a 6-month pilot study to provide for these needs. Our goal is to assess the long-term feasibility of caring for a larger group of children. Highlights:

Rented space in Manila
Three children ages nine months to 8 years old
Three caretakers

Rented Space in Manila: Our pilot study will take place in Manila, where over 600,000 children are homeless (Quigley, 2018).

Children: Initially, we will take in 3 children, ages nine months to 8 years old. The parents or guardians will provide signed, written permission to allow PPFF to care for their children.

Caregivers: The caregivers include an RN, a 24/7 caretaker, and a part-time caretaker. PPFF will conduct criminal, background, and health checks on staff members.

Funding: Generous donors have provided funding for this pilot study; however, we would like to invite you to help these children through prayers and financial support.
