Pagtanim ng Pag-Asa: How Joel’s Community Found Hope in Food and Livelihood
For 44 years, Joel Sanchez has called Sitio Burog home. As the president of their Indigenous agriculture cooperative, he has seen the daily challenges of accessing food and livelihood. With support from Pilipinas Shell Foundation, Inc. and Bloomberry Foundation Inc., Joel and his community built a thriving garden and received training in sustainable farming and animal husbandry. Through the Roots to Shoots program, they found not just nourishment but renewed hope for a better future.
