Originally founded in 1991 under the name Philippine Children's Fund of America as a nonprofit organization, after the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo to help provide assistance to many children fathered by American soldiers in Angeles City and Subic. However, our programs and services were soon made available to other people affected by the very many years of unfortunate effect of the biggest volcanic eruption in the world. Seeing a need to address other issues in education, nutrition for children and even economic programs for the community we partnered with more than fifty (50) hardworking and dedicated NGOs helping poor Filipinos in all parts of the Philippines. In addition, we set up a shelter in Sacramento, CA for the many American Youth flown from the Philippines who cant come to the USA because of financial requirements and a home to stay!
Today, our programs are dedicated to working with non-profit organizatons providing loans for the poor to help them stand on their feet, enabling them to provide for their family's needs. We beileve that by helping many individuals help themselves, will lessen the number of people depending on DOLEOUTS.
During the Philippines covid-19 crisis we took the challenge to produce a minimum of 10,000 masks to be given to the poor to help protect them from virus infections, while providing home-based jobs for many poor mothers during the lockdown.

From Bedsheets and Curtains to 10 thousand Free Masks!
In response of the very alarming number of people that are being diagnosed with COVID-19 in the Philippines, expected to be a very serious calamity because of the lack of health materials to help protect the big population of poor people, we are partnering with the Paradise Ranch in Clark to produce initial 10 to 20 thousand homemade mask made from bedsheets / lines and even curtains.
Paradise Ranch volunteered to donate ALL its new and used supplies in the absence of textile to buy from the market. The face masks will not only help thousands of people from the many Barangays that are now calling and asking for these free masks, but will also open job opportunities to many individuals who can sew these at their homes during the lockdown.
….“Our stock shelves are now empty and our beds and windows are cleared off bedsheets and curtains, things don’t look good but providing 10 to 20 thousand mask to the needy to help save lives is great and that's what matters to us now”…. says a Paradise senior staff.

TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE 15-DAY PAUSE TO SLOW THE SPREAD
OF COVID-19
Considerations for state and local community leaders
What is the 15-day pause?
While every community is unique and experiencing varying levels of community transmission, the 15-day pause recommended by the White House presents the entire country with an opportunity to assess how prepared we are and take steps to implement actions designed to slow and limit the spread of COVID-19. We understand that the pause may last longer than 15 days.
Thinking ahead
At some point, the recommended actions will change. Community leaders must come together to facilitate services and businesses re-opening in an orderly way. The resumption of activities needs planning so that it does not negatively affect ongoing mitigation efforts in local areas or the country as a whole.
STEPS EVERY SECTOR CAN TAKE DURING THE 15-DAY PAUSE TO PLAN AS ONE COMMUNITY
Identify leaders from every sector who can join a task force to jointly plan for and implement a coordinated effort
- Communicate with the public to share considerations and decisions about when to start reopening – prepare them that 15 days may not be long enough and will depend on a variety of factors, which look different from community to community.
- Identify organizations serving at risk and underserved populations and help them prepare
- Access critical gaps in resources and supply chain
- Medical equipment
- Food supply
- Cleaning and disinfection products
- Identify childcare for critical infrastructure workforce
- Healthcare workers
- First responders
- Teachers and school administrators
- Utility company staff
- Mental health professionals
- Begin planning for an orderly return to daily life
- Identify leaders from every sector who can join a task force to jointly plan for a coordinated effort
- Work with public health authorities to determine which interventions should continue and identify local factors that might assist determining when and how to resume services.
- Local factors to examine
- Local spread
- Strain on critical infrastructure
- Supply chain relief
- Public mood, tolerance and community resilience
- Local factors to examine
- For those interventions that should remain in place, consider how to lessen the adverse effects of them
- Prepare public communication materials to explain what people can do to alleviate the negative effects of interventions that remain in place.
- Prepare the public that this may be a slow, staged progression back to normalcy
- Restrictions will be lifted as soon as it is safe to do so
- Communities need to stick together to help one another through these challenging times
