“My existence is not limited to myself, to my perceived goals, to my perceived lines of achievements, but at the end of my life it will be very interesting to recall how I was at the service of others.” - Gio Francisco

This week we will travel to Manila, Philippines to talk to our friend, Gio Francisco. He is 23 years old and is from Las Piñas City in Metro Manila. He’s earned his bachelor’s degree in Psychology and is now a licensed Psychometrician and will be taking up a master's degree in Psychology in the near future. He is the Coordinator for Youth Development and Formation under the Support at a Distance Program of Bukas Palad Foundation of the Philippines, Inc.

Bukas Palad Foundation of the Philippines, Inc. (BP) is a non-profit and NGO that provides sustainable development, education, livelihood, information and communication strategy to children, elderly, urban poor, and victims of calamities and disasters. BP serves the community through comprehensive programs and services that are geared towards promoting the holistic growth of its beneficiaries. And today, we will have Gio talk a bit more about what programs he does with youth at Bukas Palad and how, through his work, he spreads the value of being communion, or community, with other people.
