Heartfelt Thanks from Inter-Faith Children

By Albert Santoli | Project Leader

The holiday season reminds us of how fortunate we are to have so many wonderful donors through our Global Giving network.  Each and every one of you is a true blessing for the nearly 1,000 children who benefit from this peace and development program.

In 2014, we created this project to bring together Christian and Muslim children in need. Thus far, we have assisted close to 10,000 children in elementary schools in Sulu and Visayas regions of the Philippines. The children continue to overcome extreme poverty, natural disasters and communal violence via clean water and improved daily nutrition, thanks to your support.

The founder and headmaster of Sahaya Integrated Madrasa elementary school in Jolo, Sulu is Doctor Amy. She says,“The AAI-sponsored feeding program is contributing to healthy children, minimal daily absences of pupils, a zero dropout rate and above average academic performance – by children who live in some of the most impoverished household conditions.  Mothers and fathers of pupils assist teachers to cook daily meals. We and AAI have a partnership to provide school supplies, garden tools, garden seeds, and pipes for fresh water."

Many thanks to Asia America Initiative donors who have supported our vision of peace through social/economic progress.  Most importantly, the ongoing support for this program year after year allows the chance for a true transformation built through community dignity and cooperation.
