A Sense of Hope

I Got Enspired!

“Being a part of the Bulacan Community Project has become a life long journey for me because the two weeks I volunteered in Bulacan changed my life. My experience can never be limited to the time I physically traveled to the Philippines because the people I met there will always be apart of my life. BCP has not only fulfilled my passion to help others but has shown me how to embrace existing and new family and friend relationships.”

Making The Dream A Reality

A few years ago, the plight of the children from the Navotas shanty town caught the eye of a philanthropist associated with the well-established Pag-aalay Ng Puso Foundation (PPF) – a non-governmental organization in the Philippines and an affiliate of Enspire Foundation. For over 20 years, PPF employees and volunteers have been living and working in Navotas, helping to create a community in the shanty town.

During a short trip to a PPF school residence for Dumagat indigenous children in Norzagary, Bulacan, this philanthropist saw the 20,000 sq. metre property next to the residence and thought it would be ideal for a housing cooperative community project for the families living in Bagong Silang, Navotas City. With the help of Enspire, the dream became a reality.

Do you have an open mind and a desire to explore a different culture? Are you ready for a life-changing experience? Enspire’s Shared Experience Program provides opportunity for compassionate individuals to travel to less developed countries to help build a new community. Since 2006, Enspire has built a library and a new community in Bulacan, Philippines to aid in the relocation of slum-dwellers from the shanty town of Navotas City.
