Philippines Message by Founder and Patron, Naimbag a bigatyo amin cacabsat Agyamanac ti caaddayo ditoy nga makipagyaman ken Apo Dios ti panakalpas daytoy naipatkder nga pangisuruan ti ububbing.

Sapay coma ta amin nga ubbing nga umay agsursuro ditoy, bendicionan ni Apo Dios ida, ket maisaganada nga agtuloy ti panagadalda. Namnama means Hope. Our Vision for the Namnama Early Childhood Learning and Feeding Center is: To improve
the physical, mental and spiritual condition of poor less privileged children
(ages 2-5 years old) so they are better prepared and more inclined to continue
going to school thus developing their God-given talents to the fullest. Our Mission
is: 1) To
develop the physical, mental, emotional, and social condition of the children
in preparation for Kindergarten. 2) To provide supplemental nourishment (nutritious snacks and lunch) in order to prevent malnutrition. 3) To teach the children basic health habits. 4) To
teach the children simple work habits. (Putting away toys, gardening, etc.) 5) To encourage the children to love and fear God and to love other people. We are living in faith that the Lord will provide the funds needed to run this program. Before I close, I would like to thank the following: 1) The builders- Biteng, Didoy, Joker, Rogelio, Maxi, Larry, Gerald – for their patience. 2) Theody and Art and Eden for their untiring efforts in supervising the work and doing all the legwork. 3) To
my husband, Rufi for his wholehearted support of this project. 4) To God for giving us the privilege to start this project To God be the
Glory!
