From Waffles to Wonders: How One Birthday Tradition is Changing Lives in the Streets of Manila!

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

On February 23, my girlfriend Jenylyn Dangel, buddy Carl Gerona, and I joined forces to distribute 28 free waffles to people on the streets of Taguig City, celebrating my 28th birthday in partnership with Waffle Time. The SM Bicutan branch of Waffle Time kindly helped prepare the packaging and waffles for 28 lucky recipients.

This year, our efforts received a significant boost through a partnership with Waffle Time, a renowned Filipino waffle brand. The SM Bicutan branch generously prepared and packaged the waffles for our distribution. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Ms. Ellen Irader Melocoton, Waffle Time's Marketing Officer-In-Charge, for her invaluable support in this endeavor.​

Celebrating 25 years of delectable success since its humble beginnings in September 1998 in Iloilo City, Waffle Time has become a beloved name in the food kiosk industry, delighting customers with freshly baked, mouthwatering waffles at unbeatable prices. With over 500 outlets nationwide, Waffle Time proudly holds the title of "Ang Pambansang Waffle ng Pilipinas" and is now setting its sights on becoming the world's best waffle destination - Best Waffles in the World!

Taguig City has been proactive in implementing nutrition and education programs. The local government offers free daycare integrated with nutrition interventions and physical activities, aiming to combat the country's learning crisis. Programs like the 120-Day Dietary Supplementation for young children and initiatives promoting breastfeeding reflect the city's dedication to holistic child development. ​

Our initiative aligns with these community efforts, aiming to inspire and support fellow Filipinos. We are eager to see our program grow, fostering a culture of giving and learning. Through collaboration and shared purpose, we believe in making a positive impact, one waffle at a time.​

We're excited to collaborate on future projects, starting with distributing 100 waffles to people on the streets of Manila and creating a program for kids that includes mini-lectures on reading and math. What began as a simple food-sharing initiative has evolved into a comprehensive program that provides not only sustenance but also education.

This program aims to inspire and fulfill every Filipino, and we look forward to its continued growth and impact.
