CCF headed to Tahanan ng Pagmamahal located in Pasig City for the outreach program of Making Lives Better with Allorica (MLBA) – Cubao Chapter.
It’s been seven (7) years since CCF set foot at the said orphanage. They have a new Director and the place was quite spacious as compared before.
We immediately set up our booth inside the venue to the delight of the children. They watched us as we make popcorn and cotton candies.
While most of the guests were delighted to see us as we cook popcorn, one staff in the orphanage wanted us to transfer outside the room. When we asked said person, she just said some kid might get accidentally burned as we cook popcorn. We reasoned out that she should told us in the first place and not when we have already set up as it was difficult to disassemble everything and assemble them again. There were also staff who don’t know how to talk to the donors and has been quite rude.
Nevertheless, the orphaned kids were delighted by what we prepared and that they had a great time, that’s what’s important. The program started with a prayer then followed by a parlor game, lunch, then gift giving.
We intend not to disclose the identities of the children, for their protection.
