The Lumad children of Mindanao, Philippines need our help!Mommy's friend Tita Emma Linda works for an NGO. She sent mommy a message soliciting for help in any way in support to one of the programs of TRICOM, Inc., a Non Government Organization that "works with different Indigenous Peoples and Communities of Mindanao for them to attain effective control over ancestral resources, govern and manage their own political, socio-cultural and economic development."
I also wanted to help out but because I am still a baby, there really isn't much I can do. So to reach many readers with generous hearts, here I am blogging about the project.
Every year, TRICOM holds a Christmas package drive for the Day Care Centers in the areas of Glan Sarangani, Isulan and Kulaman Sultan Kudarat.
Would you like to help these children of the Mindanao provinces learn better? We can all help them by sending grade one pad papers, pencils, art papers, bond papers, chalk, erasers, manila paper, cartolina, school supplies, used clothing suitable for cold areas, canned goods/groceries etcetera. Or you can also send cash whichever is more convenient for you.
