About Us;
A lot of Filipinos migrate to USA to seek better opportunities. Inspite of their success and fulfillment of their big dreams, returning to the Philippines to visit family and friends are always part of their tradition. Returning home always call for a joyous celebration, but with that happiness comes the feeling of sadness on seeing the life of our less fortunate neighbors. You see children carrying their infant sibling begging on the city streets or working in the farm. Children walk miles to school barefooted, hungry and showing signs of malnutrition. Children, adults and senior citizens with bad dentition and poor vision. Patients waiting in long lines at health centers for free medical services. Person with disability who has a very limited access to almost everything you can think of. Then you ask yourself, “WHAT CAN I DO TO GIVE BACK?” This is how our WITH LOVE JAN, INC foundation was envisioned- a dream to SHARE, SERVE AND GIVE LOVE to the poorest of poor through the generosity and support of our benefactors.
