First Supplies Reach Naborot Carles Elementary School

JD Foundation's first distribution reached students and families at Naborot Carles Elementary School in Iloilo, Philippines. Funds raised by friends and family provided school supplies (crayons, pencils, ballpens, paper), snacks and drinks for students, and a hot lunch of rice, mongo (a warm, hearty Filipino mung bean stew — the kind of dish that means someone's taking care of you), and fried chicken for a two-day soft launch introducing JD Foundation's mission to the school community.

Teachers and staff organized the distribution, and the turnout and enthusiasm from the community made it clear this is just the beginning.

This is just the beginning
