1in3out is based in Orange, CA USA with contacts in Quezon City, Philippines. Continuing a decades-long family tradition, we are using social media as a way to help some of the poor people of our Mother Land.
From our base of operations in Orange, we have received donations from as far as Florida. The majority of our donations are from Los Angeles and Orange County, known to have the biggest concentration of Filipinos living outside of the Philippines.
The clothes are then sorted out and boxed. We use LBC Express for shipping boxes and services. We ship a total of 6 Extra Large boxes a month with a turnaround average of 5 weeks.
Our Quezon City contacts will receive the boxes and will start sorting out the clothes based on gender and age. A pre-determined location will be the site of distribution based on what that location needs.
1in3out is not affiliated with any local government organization. We are not workin with any middle men. No politics. No red tape. No corruption. We trek to the distribution sites and hand these donations out ourselves. What you donate is what we hand out. We will provide 100% transparency on how we conduct business. Every action is documented through photos and videos that we will try to post in our network, including "shoutouts" to our donors. Even receipts is available upon request.
We are more than happy to share information on how you can help our cause and how to give us donation. We would love to talk. Connect with us!

Batch25: Payatas
Payatas, Philippines. While the men hustled as construction workers and garbage scavengers, the women of Payatas took care of the kids. Obvious in this video is the lack of adult males and the surprising number of kids who joined us that day. Children, age 14 and below, makes up 32% of the 130,000+ population of this town. That’s an unbelievable number even for the Philippines.
The town was once the biggest dumpsite in the country. 900 tons of trash dumped daily. Stacked so high that it became unstable, collapsed, and took the lives of 232 scavengers and individuals living in the make-shift houses inside the site. The disaster forced it’s closure in 2010, and has been rebuilding itself since then with promises of modernized residential areas, eco parks and bike trails.
We met up with the residents of Payatas inside a gated compound bordered by a church and an assembly building donated and built by Korean missionaries. It was loud, it was crowded, it was fun! Mothers and children stood in line, waiting for their turn to receive goods we’ve gathered from generous donors and sponsors. Rice, groceries, vitamins, and a delicious spaghetti lunch.
Our biggest appreciation to all the sponsors, donors and volunteers that made this outreach a success. Thank you for Helping Us Help Them.
Florentino Cayetano
77 years old and 30 years of working for the Church, Florentino Cayetano is the all-around handyman and caretaker of the facility. Let’s listen to his story, including what he remembers from the tragic 2010 dumpsite disaster.
Payatas Thank You Shoutout!
