“The children of Siargao have suffered so much. They faced a pandemic and then a devastating typhoon. When I was packing educational supplies for them, I felt humbled. Just a few hours of volunteering enables weeks or months of learning for these kids. I feel blessed to be a part of this!”

– Michelle Batungbacal, Hands On Manila trustee

Hands On Manila’s Trustees worked jointly to pack educational materials for children of Siargao who were affected by the typhoon Odette last December 2021, in celebration of Good Deeds Day 2022.

The kits made yesterday by the four trustees include 70 bags and 60 plastic envelopes with educational materials: glue, pencils, ball pens, sharpeners, reading books, notebooks, scissors, and slippers.

A simple act of kindness could mean a lot to someone else’s life.
