July 3, 2020 — Status report for the Alfonso, Cavite project
The distribution of foods to the chosen families of Alfonso, Cavite was conducted at St. Joseph’s church in Barangay Kaytitinga. Lito and Sol Ilagan (Feed the Hungry Philippines-FA) assisted Fr. Josue Muldon, who is the parish priest, in the distribution to the families. Message from Lito and Sol Ilagan, Feed the Hungry Philippines – FA
“The NaFFAA gift giving in Alfonso, Cavite was held today at about 9 am in St. Joseph’s Church in Barangay Kaytitinga. Fr. Josue asked me to say a few words about the gift giving and so I told them that the donation came from NaFFAA and that the organization raises funds in the US and give them to the poorest of the poor in the Philippines. The whole implementation was very organized. The beneficiaries were very thankful for the gifts they received. Thank you and to NaFFAA for helping the poorest of the poor in Alfonso, Cavite.”
