We are involved in an ongoing advocacy called, "Dalawang Litrong Panyapak sa Paskong Pangarap." Sa bawat batang walang PANYAPAK (tsinelas o sapatos) at sa bawat dalawang used empty plastic bottles that the kids will collect ay tatapatan ng donor ng isang new or a used but still good condition pair of slippers (or shoes). Pagkatapos ng Pasko' 2011, itutuloy natin ang proyekto bilang: "Dalawang Litrong Panyapak sa Batang May Pangarap"
Makakatulong ito sa kalikasan and to the Earthcare Services of Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila (RCAM) as our partner community waste hauler. We will be endorsing these empty-plastic-bottles to them, which will also help RCAM to have additional income to assist too the less-in-life they are supporting.
The donors for this PANYAPAK (tsinelas) will be our students, teachers or any generous individuals or groups who would like to practice the values of sharing, giving and concern for less in life. The beneficiaries of the project will be the poor kids from Tondo, Manila.
