Hi, my name is Tija, and I am raising funds to support ANCOP (Answering the Cry of the Poor) and the vulnerable communities they serve in the Philippines.

Across the Philippines, many families live in extreme poverty, often in one room homes with limited access to education, safe spaces, or basic resources. Children grow up without places to learn, play, or even gather safely as a community. ANCOP works directly with these families, responding to their needs through education, community development, and emergency aid during times of disaster.

Through this initiative, I will be volunteering alongside ANCOP in some of these communities helping to improve homes, supporting children in orphanages, and spending time with families who face daily hardship but show incredible resilience and hope.

Our wider fundraising efforts are also supporting the construction of a community centre in Samal, where over 100 families currently live without any shared indoor space. This centre will become a place of safety and belonging. Somewhere children can be educated, families can gather, and the community can come together to play, pray, and support one another.

Every donation, no matter the size, helps provide dignity, opportunity, and hope to people who need it most. Your generosity will directly support life changing work and help answer the cry of the poor.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support you are able to give.
