The TFCA Grade 7 students started the program with a prayer which was followed by some songs, and Bible stories to engage the children and while waiting for the food to arrive.

With the help of the Grade 9 students who were in charge in preparing the food, the Grade 7 pupils reached out to the children by feeding them with “Sopas.” Each student reached out to one child. They served as the big “ate” or big “kuya” for that day.
There were around 30 kids who were fed that morning. Some of them were about to go to school, but decided to go to the feeding program first to have breakfast.
