Start Right Live Bright Nutrition Program by NVC

By | Christmas, For kids, Giving Back | One Comment

 Another project by the Negrese for Change Foundation ( NVC ) is the Start Right Live Bright Project 

These beautiful ladies, Giselle and Camille, explained to me about Mingo 🙂  You can buy Mingo at P 4.00 a pack which is good for a day already for a child.  There are two flavors, regular and chocolate.  Of course kids prefer chocolate 🙂  Mingo was already existent before Yolanda came and they were using Mingo for relief in the past.  All you need is water to mix with the powdered Mingo.  Read more below

Another way you can help this Christmas is by buying Mingo cards for only P 250.00 and help in their feeding program

Art is Hope Auction

Take time out to watch the video.  I am so happy that Marla Dizon shared this with me!  Heart2Heart is so happy that there exists such a foundation, the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc ( RAFO )  and provides a different need – SHELTER KITS!  

[wp_youtube]N1Wso5L1s5Q&[/wp_youtube]

Marla’s Dad, Tito Paquito Dizon and Vita Sarenas of Finale Gallery will be raising money through an auction which will be held today!  All proceeds will go to RAFI to buy more shelter kits

100% of the proceeds from the auction will go to the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation

 to purchase shelter kits.  Shelter has had to take a backseat to food and medicine but is integral to the recovery process.  The NYTimes came out with an article last week about the increas in pneumonia as a direct result of the lack of shelter.  I am so glad there are so many people helping and covering as many areas as possible to ensure the safety and well being of our fellowmen!

So glad they cover 3 steps which has a longer term response

The shelter kids will be distributed through the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc
