Yesterday, my friends and I embarked on a journey to Northern Cebu, driven by a deep sense of compassion and a desire to personally deliver donations to the victims of the devastating earthquake that struck last Tuesday, September 30.
After enduring a grueling 22-hour drive and a few hours of meticulous packing, we finally arrived at our destination. Despite the challenges we faced, including heavy traffic and an eight-hour standstill along the narrow Carmen–Asturias route due to incessant rain, we managed to assist nearly 50 families in need.
Every moment spent with these families was filled with joy and gratitude, as their smiles and expressions of appreciation made all the effort worthwhile.
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to my sister, the Marino Family, the Sorrells Family, Atty. Lu Anne Godinez, and especially Edna & Jerry Poindexter for their unwavering generosity and support. Your kindness and generosity made this mission a resounding success.
This experience was incredibly fulfilling and heartwarming, serving as a powerful reminder of the transformative power of compassion and teamwork.
Let us continue to spread hope and lend a helping hand whenever we can. Together, we have the ability to make a profound difference in the lives of others.
