Canvas Of Hope

An update to Joey Velasco's "Kambas Ng Lipunan" video which featured his "Hapag Ng Lipunan" painting and the kids in it. As of last December 2007, 4 of the kids and families are now GK beneficiaries. The video features Jomar (4th from the right back row in Hapag Ng Pag-asa) and how his whole life has changed with GK's intervention.

Many of these street kids, when asked what they wanted to be when they grow up, would answer, a tricycle (motorized pedicab) driver.

Jomar, featured in the video now wants to be an engineer, to help build, to pay-back or pay-forward those whom have helped him and his family.

Yes there is hope - one family at a time, one community at a time, one country at a time.

Can anyone nominate Joey Velasco for the CNN Hero of the Year 2010? He can be the next Efren Penaflorida.

Desde mi país lejano, no tenía ni la más remota idea de dónde estaban las Filipinas, he podido conocer gracias a todos los videos de YouTube y quiero creer que ustedes están mejor de lo que se puede ver en los videos. Afortunadamente hay personas que trabajan para ayudar a las personas necesitadas y sobre todo a los niños que son el futuro del mundo. En alguna parte escuché que las Filipinas es la tierra prometida... y espero que así sea...

Un saludo desde Colombia.
