The Silent Crisis in Bayugao
The Aeta people are the resilient first inhabitants of the Philippines. Yet, in Barangay Bayugao, 80 households face a daily struggle against malnutrition.
Infant Malnutrition
Many infants survive on water alone due to a lack of milk.
Education Gap
Government programs exist, but hunger keeps children from attending school.
Director's Financial Letter
Fiscal Year 2025 Overview
Dear Friends and Partners,
Transparency is not just a policy for us; it is the foundation of our relationship with you. When we founded the Bukas Palad Initiative, we made a core promise: 100% of public donations go directly to the beneficiaries.
We cover the operational costs (fuel, logistics, web hosting) through Alona's Leisure Group. This means if you donate ₱1,000 for rice, exactly ₱1,000 worth of rice reaches Barangay Bayugao.
Current Fund Allocation
We are officially registered with the SEC. Purchase records and bank statements are available upon request for any donor.
Sincerely,
Peter De Ceuster
Director, Alona's Leisure Group
