A grassroots effort bringing food, school supplies, footwear and everyday essentials to children and families across the Philippines — one act of kindness at a time.
Somewhere between two homes, a reason to give back became something bigger.
Project Helga began as a personal effort — a way of staying connected to the Philippines by supporting the people still there. It has grown into a small, ongoing outreach, run largely on volunteer time and community generosity, reaching children, families, and elders with the things they need most.
Helga is a Filipina living abroad who never lost her connection to home. Project Helga is her way of turning that connection into practical support — school supplies, shoes, food, and everyday essentials sent and delivered to communities across the Philippines.
Her husband joined the effort early on, and together they've kept it going: packing boxes, coordinating outreach days, and showing up for the people they support.
These figures reflect totals Project Helga has shared through its own updates and social channels — they haven't been independently audited.
Outreach so far has reached communities in a handful of areas across the Philippines — these are the places Project Helga has visited so far, not a complete map of where support may go next.
Project Helga is an independent, grassroots giving effort — it isn't itself a separately registered charity. Support given through this page is coordinated through CharityPhilippines, a giving initiative connected to 101 Foundation Inc. We're sharing this plainly so you know exactly what you're supporting.
