Tugbok Davao City Students Received School Materials

Last May 24, 2014, our team together with other volunteers went to Tugbok, Davao city to distribute school supplies to more than a hundred students as part of the 4th Back to School Gift Giving Project. The said project aims to provide better education to less fortunate children especially those in remote areas. One of its project was to give necessary school materials like bags, notebooks, pencils, etc. For the first leg of the project, our beneficiaries were students who live in two different orphanages in Tugbok namely, Providence Home of St. Joseph and Padre Pio's Home for Children.

Gift Giving at St. Joseph Home of Providence

Here's another batch of beneficiaries for the 3rd Back to School Gift Giving Project. This time, its the children of St. Joseph Home of Providence (SJHP). This is run by SMAC sisters and they have 46 children inside the orphanage. The children receives school supplies such as notebook, school bags, glue, pencils, coloring materials, and other school supplies.



This is actually the first time that SJHP is part of the Back to School Gift Giving Project. Though this is not the first time that i/we visited this orphanage because we had our medical mission already a year ago. Fortunate enough that were able to collect more school supplies that's why the said orphanage is now part of the beneficiaries. Here are some captured moments during the gift giving which happens last May 19, 2013.

Padre Pio's Home for Children Receives School Supplies

Padre Pio's Home for Children (PPHC) is an orphanage located at Rambutan St. Tugbok, Davao city. It is run by the Apostles of Jesus Crucified Sisters whose patron saint is St. Pio. They have 30 children and all of these children are into schooling. Since, I have been a volunteer of PPHC, every year before the school year starts, I always see to it that PPHC will receive school supplies and no need for them to buy. So, for the 3rd Installment of Back to School Gift Giving Project, PPHC is again part of the beneficiaries. 30 children receives school bags, notebook, pencils, coloring materials, and other school supplies that they need.

In My Own Little Ways

Back 2 School Gift Giving Project was A Success!!!

"Let me just share this to you. It was my one way of sharing all the blessings that GOD bestowed upon me for the past 23 years of my existence. It was my lil way also of inspiring people to help the needy and to tell fellow differently-abled persons that we can actually contribute to our community in our own little ways."
