We would like to extend our sincere appreciation to all the surgeon, anesthesist, dentist, nursing staff of Dizon Hospital in Kidapawan City for a well done job in the CLAP surgery performed to two patients. Although two other patients failed on the medical screening due to unforeseen pre- existing medical illnesses, they will receive periodic physical examination in the next coming months to assure that they will be healthy enough for our second CLAP surgery this coming February, 2018.
Cleft Left and Palate Surgery
Our first Cleft Lip and Palate (CLAP) surgery will be conducted on September 1, 2017. There are four children who are candidate and currently going on screening for the surgery. A team of surgeon, pediatrician , dentists, and volunteers will help us in facilitating the procedure. Please join us in prayers that the procedure will not have any complications.
Congratulations To Our First Graduates!

Kids are kids no matter what. They will always find a way for games and entertainments. At the first week of feeding program, we found out that during recess and break time they will spend the time playing with rubber bands, marbles and the most popular of them all, spider wrestling. No Nintendo, play station, xbox or any sort of computer games. How we break this, just scroll on the pictures. Please, if anybody who have spare time to provide coaching and sports training for this school kids we need you.

Visiting the woman shelter opened our heart to the fullest. You will always have our support.
And the mission continues...
Puasinda Integrated School was the first feeding beneficiary to our mission. Populated with indigenous people mostly of the Manobo tribe, the school has about 300 elementary students who receive hot meal 5 days a week. Located remotely, the population of this site was constantly threatened with an insurgent conflict between two armed groups.
The 300 students also received backpacks containing uniforms, underwear, shoes, school supplies, personal hygiene material and raincoats.
