Hunger Relief & ISTORYA Program for the Homeless Community

A meal and a book can spark hope, and we witnessed it firsthand.

Almost 500 meals were distributed to families and individuals living near the National Library, Roxas Boulevard, and Liwasang Bonifacio.

Together with our volunteers, we served simple but filling meals. Each plate brought smiles, gratitude, and quiet hope. Seeing the joy on their faces reminded us why every effort matters.

While the meal distribution was ongoing, our volunteers also facilitated a short ISTORYA session with some of the kids at the Liwasang Bonifacio, where they created simple family portraits, called “Larawan ng Aking Pamilya.”

A huge thank you to our partner, Fundación Europamundo, for making this program possible. And special shoutout to all our volunteers for helping from the preparation to distribution.

Moments like these show the power of community, sharing, caring, and lifting each other up, one meal at a time.
