IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

We're thrilled to share that after careful consideration, our board members have decided that "Binabalian Elementary School" will be the recipient of our 2027 school supplies outreach mission in the Philippines! Many of you followed the detailed accounts from our Founder, Evelyn Serbout, about the six remarkable schools she visited, each deserving of our support. After much deliberation, we're honored to bring joy to the 560 students of Binabalian Elementary, who, despite being situated 5 to 6 hours from Manila and facing the brunt of natural disasters, hold boundless potential. Located on the small island of Santiago, near Bolinao Pangasinan, the school's determination is matched only by the challenges its children face living below the poverty line. A formal communication will be sent shortly to confirm the details. Thank you to everyone who waited patiently for this announcement.

To the principals and teachers of the other schools, please know that your dedication is seen and there will be opportunities ahead. Evelyn extends her heartfelt gratitude to all, and we look forward to making a meaningful difference in the lives of these remarkable students.

Our Family Day Adopt a Family campaign was a huge success. Thank you to our incredible donors that made this campaign so amazing! Our initial dream was to support 25 families and with your generous donations we were able to create food packages for 40 families.

Thank you to Evelyn and Sandra for doing all the shopping. Special shout out to the Wearhouse store for their GC donation. A big thank you to all the volunteers that came out and organized the food items and packed the hampers.

Wendy, Hadeel and Maria thank you for sharing your connections to ensure we let families know the program was there.

It is our privilege to continue this program and share it with our community. Happy Family Day!

Family Day is upcoming and we are looking forward to supporting families with food once again. We will have more information this week.

We appreciate all of our sponsors and donors who help us.

It’s hard to describe the feelings we experienced today. All the stress and anxiety melts away when a child smiles just because you have arrived. The even bigger smiles when they see the stuffed toys will melt your heart. We were treated to unbelievable Moroccan hospitality before and after the school supplies delivery. We couldn’t start without having tea and couldn’t leave without having couscous.

The children wore their best clothes and their parents all came to be a part of the celebrations. It was wonderful to see the kids run to their parents to show them their new backpack and goodies inside.

There will be more to come.

Thank you to all of our supporters, OPC members in Canada, and our followers we couldn’t do any of this without your support.

Today is the day - Outreach Day. We have carefully packed all the school supplies into the backpacks and are ready to deliver them to the children just outside of Safi. We are Blessed to be able to share this moment with 12 guest ambassadors and 6 OPC members. Stay tuned for more later today!
