June 1, 2014. Our club (well, consists of 3 person, including me! haha!) Went to Mamburao, Mindoro to extend some help to our fellow countrymen. Hehe. Echos. Kidding aside, we went there to bring some stuffs to the Mangyan children.

| Ola! |
 |
| The boyfriend's gorgeous feet! |
 |
| Heh, Hi lavv |
 |
| Their only classroom! Here is where the elementary kids study! The population is 80 students, from 1st to 6th grade. |
 |
| The only teacher who molds the students. She's the only one teaching the 1st to 6th grade. Yup. Hero! |
 |
Their home.
|
 |
| The kiddos! |
 |
| Giving them their pair of slippers. Not just for the kids, for the adults also. They don't really wear slippers. Just barefoot, while going to school, playing outside, etc. It's the first time for some of them to have their pair of slippers. |
 |
| Excited for their first pair of slippers! ;) Its just so heartbreaking to know that after we gave them slippers, some of them removed if from their feet and kept it. They don't want their slippers to be worn out fast because they're saving it for the rainy season. |
 |
| Another thing that they need the most are clothes! We only brought one bag of used (but not abused) clothes, but the clothes were a hit! It's like we brought a Forever21 loot, they super loved the items! Their eyes were sparkling by just seeing the bag full of garments. |
 |
| Look at this cutie, so excited to wear her new dress! ;) |
 |
| My favorite bb girl. Maurice. Trying her full #ootd heehee |
 |
| Here she is! Isn't she lovelyy? |
 |
| Healthy Teeth Campaign 3.0!! :D |
 |
| Maurice!!! |
 |
| Such beauty. |
 |
| First time I saw Maurice smile. |
We felt like we're the one who helped, but it was us who
was aided. Helped in a way that they made us realize the petty things that are
regularly around us, matters a lot. That, living a simple and happy life in this
world of technology and era of selfies is still, possible.
They showed us the true meaning of humility, we never
felt that they have insecurities, they do not envy people having these awesomesauce gadgets because they never compare. Maybe because they
don't have anyone else to compare what they have or do not have. They always
give and share, food, laughter, care, and most especially, love.
Do something good for others, start now. :)
