We had 12 volunteers and Chummy Chum Foundation was together with us too. We had brought every kids a gift which prepared in snacks, biscuits, jellies and chocolate. Moreover, we purchased 25 sets of Jolibee's Happy Meal to serve the kids. Kei had brought two PATISSERIE French cakes for the kids too.  Aside of these, we did donated 7 boxes of BearBrand Milk Powder, 5 boxes of NIDO Milk Powder and a big box of Mixed Cookies.The kids are happy and cheerful when they received the gift and food. Regardless it was a great day with the kids especially those volunteers feeding the food for the kids.

Tahan-Tahanan @ East Avenue Medical Center

This month November, we LOCA group has been  visiting to Tahan-Tahanan, a halfway house in East Avenue Medical Center which houses more than 100 cancer-stricken children.

These children are from far provinces but are sheltered temporarily in Tahan-Tahanan, while they undergo medical treatments in Metro Manila.

Tahan-Tahanan is a haven for kids with cancer. Caring for kids who are afflicted with cancer is very stressful for both the kids and their parents. It requires commitment of the parents to bring their kids for treatment for at least a year. Expenses for diagnostic and therapeutic modalities are restricting especially for the poor.Notwithstanding, society, and the public authorities, shall have the duty to extend particular care to those kids without adequate means of support.

That is how Tahan Tahanan was conceived.

Truly, Tahan Tahan has set to bring happiness to these ailing kids, giving much-needed help to the kids and their needy families in their distressing plight. After all, happiness is “an illusive, transitory thing but if you bring happiness to someone else, then it comes to you.”

We lift up in prayer the victims of poverty, abandoned, illness and all those who suffer from forms of economic oppression. Let the word that goes forth from our mouths speak of your peace, and share our love brightly here. Freely give the love as we have freely received from the God.
