Mobile Distribution IX

LogoWhiteOnBlack_edited.jpg

After two weeks of continuous rain from consecutive typhoons and tropical downpour, the clouds finally parted and gave the sun the chance to bring back its warm comfort. It was also a chance for us to get back on the streets of Manila for our ninth Mobile Outreach. The rain has forced the homeless to any kind of covering they can find: under bridges, below flyovers, on covered cross-bridges, and the usual alleys with their shelters made out of tarps and cardboards.

We scanned through the city of Pasig, Makati and Pasay for those deserving 200 homeless individuals who need not worry about today’s breakfast or lunch. Today we’re serving Jollibee Yumburgers and bottled water, a very common meal for most of us but a luxury for them. Serving them the one meal for the day they don’t have to panhandle for. We also gave them dental kits (toothbrush, toothpaste, floss) courtesy of one of our very generous sponsor.

A very humid and tiring day, but as always, another successful outreach thanks to our very dedicated volunteers. Of course, none of this would be possible without the help of all our sponsors.

Kyle is one of our first-time volunteers at our most recent event in Brgy. Puray. Here is his firsthand account of how he spent his Sunday with us:

“Not knowing what to expect, I joined 1in3out on our outreach to Brgy. Puray, Rizal. The journey going there was already a challenge. The road was rough, full of lubak, and difficult to pass through. But despite this, the team didn’t give up and remained determined to reach the community.

 

When we arrived, we were faced with another challenge. We didn’t have a proper place to pack the goods we were going to distribute. With no time to waste, we immediately started packing under the heat of the sun. It was tiring, but everyone stayed committed because we knew the purpose of why we were there.

 

One moment that really stayed with me was when we served spaghetti to the community. It may seem simple, but seeing the smiles on their faces made it special. The children were also very happy during the games. Even small prizes like candies and chocolates made them excited. You could see how they smiled and appreciated every little thing they received.

 

This experience reminded me of something important:

“Sa simpleng bagay, makikita mo ang tunay na saya.”

We often complain about small inconveniences in our daily lives, but when you see their situation, you realize how they live simply yet happily.

 

Being part of this outreach inspired me to appreciate more, complain less, and always find ways to help others. A big thanks to everyone who made this outreach possible. Your support and generosity bring not just help, but also hope and happiness to the community.

 

Help Us Help Them!”

After celebrating our 5th year anniversary and our 50th outreach to end 2025, 1in3out is starting 2026 late but with 2 outreach for the month of March. Starting off at Brgy Puray, Rizal - a little over an hour drive outside of Manila. That dusty tail end of this trip was an adventure for our vehicle and volunteers. But reaching Puray and spending that Sunday with its people was worth the challenge.

This outreach was made possible by our friends from Pomona, California: Wavlngth., Dom and The Gangcuangco Family, and all their friends. Their fundraiser last year has funded this entire event, and has provided temporary relief for the 150 families who calls Puray their home. Thank you so much from us here in 1in3out and the people of Puray. Maramig salamat po!
