ABOUT USHOW WE STARTED - WHO WE ARE - WHAT WE DOFOUNDING. The Filipino Children's Fund (FCF) was incorporated
in the United States as a 501(c)(3) non-profit, non-sectarian, charitable
foundation in 1986 by Filipino Americans and others concerned about the
future of the children of the Philippines, the majority of whom now as
then live under a veil of persistent and abject poverty. PURPOSE. The mission of the FCF today remains essentially unchanged. We are dedicated solely to
providing funds and other material support to recognized organizations
in the Philippines specifically to conduct self-help, livelihood projects that will
improve the lives of impoverished children and families.
LEADERSHIP. The FCF is staffed by an unsalaried executive director and an uncompensated representative in the Philippines. The organization is guided by a voluntary board of directors comprised principally of Filipino Americans having strong family and cultural ties to the Philippines and broad, collective exposure to all regions of the country. Collectively this small, dedicated group continues to carry out the mission of the FCF by raising resources and distributing financial and material support to livelihood projects in the Philippines.
NATIONAL SCOPE. The FCF supports projects in all regions
of Luzon, the Visayas and Mindanao and, unlike many
other Philippine-American benevolent organizations, maintains no special
interests or ties to any particular province, institution, group or agency
in the Philippines or the United States. |
