Hello everyone :)

I am back again in search for more support! I am going back to the Philippines because of the life-changing experience I had last year. I cannot put into words how much I fell in love with everyone I met and the sense of community they have in Bacolod.

My name is Patty Giovannetti and I am a nursing student at Lewis University. I am going on a mission trip to Bacolod, Philippines through my ministry and the Diocese of Joliet. With the funds, prayers, and support, I will be going back in December of this year and will be staying until January 12th. We will be building houses for families, cleaning up the environment, and sharing life in the Gawad Kalinga communities. Last year, I was able to donate money and with my peers, start an education fund for the children in the community. This fund supplies the children with lunch, transportation, and uniforms for school.

I am beyond grateful for the support I received last year, and any kind of support this year will be greatly appreciated too. Any money, prayers, or positive thoughts would be incredible in helping me make my way back to the Philippines. I am raising money to help further my passion to do Gods work and help others. Please share with your family and friends, and help be a part of my journey! Thank you so much.

Love, Patty
