TUBORAN SANG GUGMA-SPRING OF LOVE

My name is Mrs Laureana Cacho Sheppard (Laurie) in Ashford, Kent UK. I have created a foundation “TUBORAN SANG GUGMA”  in Facebook in August 2013. There are about 400 members as of now 29^th November 2013.  My aim/purpose is to help the needy in my birth village in Culasi, Ajuy, Iloilo in the island of Panay, Philippines. I wanted to help the village by providing livelihood to the people to deal with poverty; hunger/malnourished.

I have organized the first Filipino Food Festival in Ashford, Kent on 12 October 2013 with the support of some Filipino Women in Kent &  South East England UK. It was a great success and we have raised funds.

The most powerful Haiyan typhoon devastated Central Philippines on 8 November 2013. I felt I could help through  Tuboran sang Gugma foundation to raise money and other kinds of donations. I started my appeal/fund-raising three days after the typhoon on Monday 11 November 2013.  I want to help the needy; victim’s of Haiyan, the survivors. They need their everyday needs; food, water, medicine, sanitation etc.  I want to help and save the lives of the survivors in my birth village.  The villagers’ livelihood/businesses were gone and they need help to restart their lives. This will not take a short-term period, it will take years for them to recover.

THE VILLAGE NEEDS YOUR HELP!  TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. SPREAD THE LOVE, GOD BLESS EVERYONE.
