We’re overjoyed to share the success of our recent food distribution event at local elementary schools last March 15 through SIFCare’s Gopalakas Program!

Thanks to the incredible support from volunteers including the Philippine Air Force 585th Air Base Group headed by 2LT Maria Bernadette Red, DOERs, Philippine Coast Guard Coast Guard District North Western Luzon headed by CG Capt Ivan E. Roldan and PO2 Archel Arroyo, PNP-Regional Recruitment and Selection Unit 1 headed by PCP1 Wilyrose Pavia, Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) Bjmp San Fernando CJ headed by SJ03 Fischer Realin, Lorma Colleges students, DMMMSU MLUC Criminology Interns, and dedicated local volunteers, we were able to make a significant impact in our community. Ma’am Althea Grace Tungbaban of DepEd Division graced the event with her presence to show support.

Activities included engaging games with questions about fruits, vegetables, trees, and more, adding a fun twist to learning! Plus, we distributed lunch boxes from VegFest, courtesy of Vegans of Manila.

Here’s a quick overview of the nourishing meals we offered:
166 monggo burgers
924 monggo peanut butter sandwiches
1090 saba
Schools:

The smiles and gratitude from both teachers and students warmed our hearts. Together, we’re making a difference! #SIFCare
