"Being Kind to others is being Kind and good to yourself. Without expecting anything in return. "
There are numerous hinterlands in Mindanao. Home of the first dwellers (Indigenous People) who are often labelled as uncivilised, illiterate, and uneducated individuals.
These ordinary people also wish their children to have slippers on their feet not just to be treated fairly in the class but also prevent their children suffering from cuts and bruises on their little feet.
The parents of these children seek help from various local government agencies but broken hearted from the treatment they receive. One teacher reach out to the volunteers and express the desire of the parents who seeks assistance to provided little slippers to their children. The group of volunteers listened to the humble request of the parents.
After hearing their stories the volunteers decided to visit the community and conduct pre-assessment in the far-flung village which main goal is to assess the health condition of the village settlers and the situation they are in. And live below the poverty threshold. They lack most of the basic social services that they desire. To address this concerns the volunteers collaborated with volunteer teachers, nurses, doctors, social workers, and community development workers to created a resource pool to address the basic nutrition, health, and livelihood. It took almost two months preparation to complete the whole process of the outreach program.
Heading to the far-flung village was really difficult particularly to the elderly volunteers. The nearest barangay hall offered their venue to support the outreach activities.
The volunteers conducted the supplemental feeding, distributing hygiene kits, educational kits, and the simple dreams of the kids having their own slippers.
The was well spent as children and parents are filled with joy seeing their children happily enjoying their meal, new kits, and the best part for them is slippers.
This activity won't be possible without the help and assistance of all kind hearted volunteers from all walks of life.
May God bless you all a thousand times. May the grace of God shower you abundance and safety.
