Five Years and Counting

I finally got down to writing a blog. Maybe it is timely since today I celebrate my fifth anniversary as a member of Food for Hungry Minds. It has been such a journey. We started out with 28 children in our school in Makati. There were three teachers, myself included, and a social worker on staff.

Today, five years later, Food for Hungry Minds serves 155 Elementary students in two schools, Makati and Malolos, Bulacan. There are 43 students being supported in different high schools, private and public. There are also 15 employees on staff. There is even an on-going expansion program in Honduras in Central America. How the organization has grown!

I could say that I have grown, too. I met people who became my mentors, colleagues who became friends, and students who have changed my view of the world. What a gift it is to be part of Food for Hungry Minds!
