Pasko sa Barrio

Some of the indigents.

We just came back from our company’s outreach program at a nearby depressed area. This is an annual activity for the company where we give out company products, clothes and food to identified indigents who are living near our company.

It was very moving to see the happy faces of families as they received our gifts. We rendered songs for them and they in turn, rendered a dance number for us. They also prepared food from their harvest – bananas, kamote, cassava and fruits which we ate together with the food we brought.

I was assigned to a family of three, with a five month old baby and they were very happy to get Vince’s outgrown clothes and toys. I am glad that I am able to teach Vince early on the value of sharing.

More than the sincere ‘thank you’s” we got, we went home bringing with us the tremendous joy that always come with sharing one’s blessings.
