Sometimes I still find myself wondering how far a person can go in life if there are people who truly believe in them.
This year, 20 of our scholars will finally graduate from college. ❤️🎓
And when I say finally, I don’t just mean finishing school. I mean surviving years of quiet struggles that most people never saw.
Each one carries a story that could break your heart if you knew it fully. They come from different parts of the Philippines, but they are connected by one dream, to finish their studies and give their families a better life.
Some grew up without parents. Some worked while studying just to get by. Some learned early that life would be hard, but still chose to continue.
And now, they are here.
Most of them will become the first college graduates in their families. That alone means everything.
We’ve been with many of them since first year college. We saw them at their lowest, tired, unsure, and close to giving up. We also saw them push through anyway.
There were nights I would read their messages in our group chat. Even when they were struggling themselves, they were still encouraging each other. It always reminded me how strong they had to be just to keep going.
We did not fix everything in their lives. We did not remove all their burdens. But somehow, we helped keep their dreams alive.
And maybe that is what Lungisan+ and Seeds&Footprints are really about.
Not big solutions. Not grand gestures.
Just people who stay, believe, and remind others, keep going, you can still make it.
To our 20 graduates of 2026, congratulations. You did not just finish college. You carried yourself through it. That alone is a victory. ❤️
To all our sponsors and donors, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
We are deeply grateful to these kind hearted individuals who gave fully without expecting anything in return. Your kindness carried more weight than you may ever realize.
This milestone is not only for our graduates. It is also for you. Every step they took, every challenge they overcame, and every dream they reached became possible because you chose to help.
You were part of their journey. And today, you are part of their victory. ❤️
Congratulations Graduates of 2026. 🌱🎓❤️
You did not just finish college.
You changed the direction of your families’ stories for generations to come.
