Children of the Jungle Inc. – Our Story

Children of the Jungle Inc. was founded with one simple mission — to bring hope and opportunity to children and families living in some of the world’s most underserved communities. Inspired by small acts of kindness during local outreach in the Philippines, the organization began as a grassroots movement led by volunteers who shared a deep passion for helping others.

Registered as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in the United States, Children of the Jungle operates with a global heart — reaching out to indigenous communities in the Philippines, Panama, and soon Myanmar. Despite being less than a year old, the charity has already organized food drives, school supply distributions, and community support projects, touching the lives of many children who often go without basic needs.

Founded and supported by a disabled U.S. veteran, together with dedicated volunteers, the organization continues to grow through pure compassion and teamwork. With about ten active volunteers, the team works to build connections between cultures — showing that even small groups with big hearts can make a real difference.

At its core, Children of the Jungle believes that every child deserves nourishment, education, and a chance to dream. By partnering with local and international allies, and through ongoing efforts like the “Food Drive Kits for Indigenous Families” initiative, the organization stands as a bridge of love between communities and continents. click here
