On August 19, 2023, we relaunched “Pop-up Bayanihan Village Program”, an outside-the-box hospitality for the homeless in Manila!
Together with our amazing partners and volunteers, we offered various services such as showers, counseling, medical check-ups, medicines, full-service luncheon, haircuts, clothing, and bio-data with photo. We also provided them with shampoo, conditioner, sunblock, toothpaste, toothbrush, raincoats, hats, peanut snacks, and so much love!
We are deeply grateful to AJ Kalinga Foundation for partnering with us and hosting this important cause. We are also very thankful to our dear heroes for making this a success!
