The Philippines is currently on high alert as the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases is rapidly rising.

As the rest of world empties the shelves of every grocery stores around, I couldn't help but think about the impact that this is having on the disadvantaged people in my community - especially the elderly. People who cannot afford to even buy a week's supply of basic needs. Those families who depend on the daily grind to put food on the table.

On behalf of those whose already difficult existence has been made much worse by this pandemic, I hope that you can find within your heart to donate to this cause. My aim is to provide bags of rice for the poor and the vulnerable elderly people in my hometown. They have been in quarantine since March. No work, no food. They need our help ASAP!

With the help of some friends and family, we have been able to give away bags of rice and noodles to more than 300 families in one Barangay (suburb) in Ligao City, photos below. There are still thousands of families in need of our help especially that the quarantine has been extended. Help us ensure these families don't go hungry. Please help by donating any amount or by sponsoring a bag of rice.

5 Kg bag of rice is Php200 or AUD7.00 - enough to feed a family for a few days.

I want to thank you in advance for your generosity. I will keep you informed as to how your donation is easing the plight of so many.

Thank you for your donation!
