Christmas in the Hospital

Because we know how it feels to be sick and spending Christmas in the hospital. One of Belaire’s mission through their music is to reach out not just to the hungry but also to the homeless and sick children. We were not allowed to personally see the children of our soldiers with cancer at AFP Medical Center – V. Luna General Hospital but through manang Aida Calagui we were able to deliver the love from our friends in NYc thank you, Shanne Garcia Hans Garcia Hannah Murphy Samuel Garcia Little John and many more who have been instrumental in sharing a piece of your hearts to the needy kababayans! God bless you all!

Ive been receiving boxes of donations from abroad, and make sure everything is well sorted out, from infants clothes, to adult. For some reasons i always carry with me infant and baby clothes in my car, last night I pulled over, macapagal ave, when i saw a baby sleeping under the tree, with her mom, i know I didn’t cause the traffic behind me, then i heard cars honking, akala ko galit yung mga sasakyn sa likod… natakot ako, so madaliang nag hanap ng mga damit para sa sanggol, kasama ang nanay, nalaman ko dun lang pala sila nakatira, eh malamig ang panahon awang awa ako sa Bata, kaya naghanap ako ng mga pajama at marami rami din ako naibigay… takot ako sa mga sakyan sa likod ko, deadma ng magalit sila sabi ko saglit lang, then me 2 guys na nasa kotse, akala ko naka dirty fingers sa labo ng mata to yun pala nag thumbs up sa akin… huhu natakot ako, kase Mag isa Lang ako. Today i saw one of the tellers ng psbank she’s pregnant then gave her some white infant clothes kase di pa nya alam ang gender ng baby nya. The rest i sent it to AFP medical center in V.Luna, c/o manang Aida Calagui to distribute clothes to the sick babies na mga anak ng mga sundalo.

Honestly di ko na matandaan kung kanino galing yung mga clothes, pero ang importante napunta sa tamang kamay at mga nangangailangang mga nanay. Sa inyong lahat na katuwang ko sa gawaing ito Maraming salamat gabayan at biyayaan kayo ng Panginoon, sa inyong kabutihan!

FHM Green Warriors

One of my simple project, i can say I’m truly proud.

During the pandemic and lockdown after our 101 days of cooking and feeding medical frontliners, i was tired and exhausted and decided to go back to Bicol to re charged and thought of doing something good for the Community.

With very limited funds left In our account I borrowed idle lands from friends and organized women to plant vegetables for their daily consumption and built a small learning hub And a library for their children. While mothers are busy in the garden our volunteer teachers tutored their children in their school assignments and modules and we introduced a simple program called “read along”. During our harvest, vegetables was sold to the market and sales were shared by everyone. Some harvest is cooked and served as daily meal for their children in the garden. And the last harvest was shared to the whole community as we call it “first community pantry. In the afternoon, mothers would rest at the hub and gave them trainings like basic, baking, organic farming, sewing, food preservation, basic entrepreneurship training and money management and other livelihood programs that we partnered with different governments agencies. As a result we encouraged and lend them small capital to start a small business/small store showcasing their unique products. And we launch the very first bazaar in our garden, which we converted into a eco tourism park later on.

To date our garden is still well kept and maintained, though regular classes has already started, few kids visits the garden, but our warriors are still active in planting and now harvesting crops from what they planted during those times.

I may have back in Manila for my work but i still visit them and continue to inspire them, motivate them to be productive and continue to inspire more people from the simple project to something they can truly be proud.
Now i can say, all my sacrifices were paid off, we have not just developed friendship but different skills and discovered their potential not just as plant lovers but green warriors with a deeper mission!

Oh i miss my ladies…. Hope to see you soon! Keep planting and harvesting! Im so proud of you all!
