Hope Grows in Pasay City Cemetery (17)

By Mira Kim | Head of International Cooperation Team

Dear Supporters,
As the year comes to a close, we are grateful to share the latest progress from the Pasay City Cemetery community in Manila. children continue to live in an environment filled with health risks, yet your support is bringing meaningful, life-improving change to their daily lives.

Over the past several months, your support has allowed us to:
Provide updated medical kits containing vitamins, wound ointment, bandages, disinfectants, and essential hygiene items
Maintain regular health check-ups in partnership with local medical professionals
Facilitate hospital care for children with severe or persistent conditions, particularly skin infections of unknown origin
Distribute antibacterial masks, helping protect children from respiratory diseases

Families have repeatedly expressed how these supplies are often the only medical resources available to them.

Through your support:
Minor injuries are now treated promptly with proper care
Skin conditions are monitored instead of being left unattended
Respiratory symptoms have decreased due to better prevention, vitamins, and protective masks
Parents are learning the importance of early wound care and hygiene practices
Such developments are vital in an environment where clean water and sanitation remain limited.

Looking ahead, we aim to:
Conduct another round of medical kit distribution to reach newly identified children
Reinforce the vitamin and supplement program to strengthen immunity during the rainy season
Improve early detection of skin diseases and respiratory infections

Thank You for Supporting Lasting Change
Your dedication is helping transform the daily lives of children who have long been overlooked. The clean, treated wounds, the relieved parents, and the healthier children we meet each month all reflect the hope you are helping to build.

We remain deeply grateful for your continued compassion and look forward to sharing more stories of healing, resilience, and progress.

With heartfelt gratitude,
The U-9 Change Team

By Mira Kim | Head of International Cooperation Team

Dear Supporters,

We are delighted to share the latest update from the cemetery community in the Philippines, where your generosity continues to bring hope, dignity, and tangible change to children and families living in the most challenging circumstances.

Progress Since April
Since our April visit, your support has enabled us to continue regular distributions of hygiene kits, medical supplies, and other daily essentials. These resources are helping families maintain better living conditions and improve the health and well-being of their children.

Our collaboration with local medical professionals has also grown stronger. Monthly health check-ups are now being conducted, providing consistent access to care, early detection of illnesses, and timely vaccinations. These efforts are reducing preventable diseases and giving children the chance to grow healthier.

Strengthening Community Education
We have expanded our hygiene education sessions to include more families, incorporating interactive activities for children to make learning both engaging and memorable. Parents have shared that these lessons are empowering them to protect their families’ health more effectively.

Looking Ahead
In the coming months, we will:

Increase the number of participating families in hygiene education programs.
Strengthen partnerships with healthcare providers to expand the range of medical services available.
Continue providing essential supplies to meet the community’s ongoing needs.

Thank You for Being the Light
The smiles on the faces of the children and the renewed confidence of their parents are a testament to the difference you are making. Your kindness is not only addressing urgent needs but is also planting the seeds for a healthier, more hopeful future.

We are deeply grateful for your continued compassion and commitment. We look forward to sharing more stories of change and resilience in the months to come.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Hope Blossoms in the Cemetery Community (15)

By Mira Kim | Head of International Cooperation Team

Dear Supporters,

We are deeply honored to share the latest update from the cemetery community in the Philippines, where your unwavering generosity continues to bring light and hope to children and families facing unimaginable hardships.

In April 2025, just as planned, our team visited the cemetery community to listen, learn, and walk alongside the families we serve. With your heartfelt support, we distributed essential medical supplies, hygiene kits to children and their families, offering not just aid, but also a reminder that they are not forgotten.

We partnered with local medical professionals to provide health check-ups, vaccinations, and health education. In addition, we introduced hygiene education sessions for children and parents, sharing simple but powerful knowledge to help protect their health. These small but meaningful steps are planting seeds for lasting change — a future where every child can grow up healthier and with more hope.

Our journey is far from over. Following our latest assessment, we have identified areas where your support is needed more than ever. In the months ahead, we are committed to:

Deepening partnerships with local healthcare providers to ensure children and families have consistent access to medical care and essential medications.

Expanding our hygiene education programs to empower more families with the knowledge to lead healthier lives.

Continuing the distribution of hygiene kits, medical supplies, and other essentials to meet the urgent needs of the community.

Thank You for Being the Light
Every smile we see, every life we touch — it all begins with you. Your kindness, your belief in their potential, and your willingness to stand with them are making a world of difference.

As we move forward, we promise to keep sharing the stories of the children whose futures you are helping to rewrite with compassion and love. Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we are nurturing hope where it is needed most.

With heartfelt gratitude,
The U-9 Change Team
