Hi all! And welcome to all the new subscribers!
Just a quick update to share some exciting news. We have raised over $5000 towards the next mission in the Philippines from our GoFundMe page as well as from RMM Church.
Because we have secured so much funding already, Joy has been contacting several mountain schools in the province of Hinoba-an on the island of Negros Occidental (where she grew up).
She has 2 schools confirmed with about 80 students each and two more schools are in the works as she tries to connect with the right person.
Here is Payab-on School which we are planning to help in this next trip.
And here is Bugtong Kahoy School!
We are still in the early stages of communication but since we have raised so much funding, Joy has already started ordering supplies.
In fact, she found a small company that makes handmade backpacks and she placed an order for 600 of them a few weeks ago. They even printed our logo on the backpack. :)
Here’s what they look like.
And here’s where they are making them:
It’s nice to be supporting local companies while we are also helping the schools. We just got word today that all 600 bags will be finished on Monday.
When will our next mission be?
We are planning on summer of 2025 if everything goes well. But we don’t have much more info than that right now.
How can you help?
We still need lots of prayers for guidance and wisdom in this adventure.
