Remembering Jesse Cabarrus

Jesus (Jesse) Cabarrus was truly loved by all. He was a wonderful father to his sons, Julian and Jakes, and he loved and doted on all of the other littles in his life. In his memory, the Jesse Cabarrus Fund seeks to give to and support all of the other littles, and their families, in the Philippines that are not as fortunate as Jesse was in his life. Your support to the Jesse Cabarrus Fund will truly change children’s lives, and the lives of their families, and put them on the path to a sustainable and healthy future.

Much love,

Meredith, Julian and Sebastian

How to Help

Contributions thus far have been used to help 35 undernourished Filipino children from a fishing town called Carles in Iloilo, Philippines. The children are currently enrolled in our year-long Mingo Meals Nutrition Program. As part of the program, the children are given a daily Mingo Meal to supplement their usual intake. The program includes quarterly medical check-ups for the children, as well as wellness counseling for the parents or guardians. Families are enticed to come in for these quarterly sessions because they can stock up on grocery items from our community pantry.

Children enrolled in the Mingo Meals Nutrition Program show a marked increase in their weight compared to their peers who are not part it. The mothers also observe an improvement in their children’s intellectual and social behavior.
