Last year, I created the Caingcoy-Hillman Legacy to help 2 underprivileged students from the island where I grew up pursue higher education. With the help of your generous donations, we committed to funding their 4-year college education and even expanded our efforts to include community initiative giveaways. To date, the Caingcoy-Hillman Legacy has awarded a total of P353,000 (equivalent to approximately $5,800) since its inception.

This Christmas, I want to personally bring hope to families in need.

In December, I will return to the Philippines to lead Caingcoy-Hillman Operation Christmas. Working alongside local government officials, I will identify families who need support, purchase groceries in bulk, prepare care packages, and personally deliver them to families in the community.

These care packages will include essential groceries such as:

• Rice

• Canned goods

• Cooking oil

• Coffee

• Sugar

• Instant noodles

• Other household necessities

My goal is to raise $2,000 to help provide these care packages.

For many of us, Christmas is a time of celebration and abundance. But for some families, it can be a difficult season filled with uncertainty. A simple care package can provide more than food—it can provide comfort, dignity, and a reminder that someone cares.

Every donation, no matter the amount, will help make this mission possible. If you are unable to donate, sharing this campaign with your family, friends, and community is another meaningful way to help.

Thank you for believing in this mission and for helping me continue the Caingcoy-Hillman Legacy. Together, we can bring hope home and make Christmas a little brighter for families in the Philippines.
