Illuminating Hope in Dark Times: The Chummy Chum Foundation’s Heartwarming Charity Event

Updated: Oct 29

Brgy. Onyx, Sta. Ana, Manila


The Chummy Chum Foundation made a meaningful visit to the children of Brgy. Onyx in Sta. Ana, Manila, who had just endured the devastating loss of their homes and belongings in a recent fire. The tragedy left families without the essentials, including the children’s school supplies, but the foundation aimed to bring a ray of hope and joy amidst the despair.


In response to this heartbreaking event, the Chummy Chum team organized a charity event designed to uplift the spirits of the affected children. Support poured in from both private and public sectors, providing essential items such as food and clothing for families temporarily displaced along the streets of Brgy. Onyx, but the most special for the children was the visit of Chummy Chum, who brought laughter and joy to the gathering. With playful activities and a cloud of bubbles filling the air, the event transformed into a magical experience for the children, allowing them to momentarily forget their troubles and embrace the joy of childhood.


To make the day even more special, the team prepared warm champurrado, popcorn, and an assortment of treats including apples, single-pack cakes, biscuits, and candies. Refreshing cold fruit juice was also served, ensuring the children had a delightful experience.


Though the visit was brief, it left an indelible mark on the hearts of the children. The smiles and laughter shared during this event offered them a glimmer of hope during one of the darkest times in their lives. The Chummy Chum Foundation’s efforts reminded everyone of the power of community and compassion, showing that even small acts of kindness can create lasting memories and bring light to those in need.


Special thanks to WeCarePH for boxes of food supplements, AnakBayan Rolling Community Pantry for boxes of candies, and Clearlogic Inc. for brand-new undergarments donated to children and parents.
