IT IS FINALLY OFFICIAL! 🎉🤩🙏
Last October 17, 2025, FCCDI signed a memorandum of agreement and launched its partnership with Ani Philippines, a joint commitment to co-implement and fund FCCDI's LEAD Project beginning academic year 2026-2027.
The signing ceremony was co-led by Ms. Charlyn Gambe, FCCDI Executive Director, and Mr. Jess Arman Clavano, Ani Philippines Director.
The warmth of the afternoon was made even more meaningful by the words of inspiration shared by Mr. Steve Komanapali, Sacred Harvest Foundation Executive Director. His message encouraged everyone to glorify God, work diligently, and make a lasting difference in the lives of others and their communities.
The testimonials of the Ata and Badjao tribal LEAD Scholars, along with the heartfelt messages from their parents, were truly moving—expressing deep gratitude and a genuine appreciation for this much-needed partnership.
Indeed, this partnership stands as an answer to FCCDI’s years of prayers. What a beautiful afternoon it was to witness this long-awaited vision finally coming to life!
The journey has just begun, and we move forward with faith, hope, and enthusiasm. To God be all the glory! 🙏
