For 36 years, CMSP has been a steadfast partner in supporting children and families in
need across the Philippines. Through the unwavering commitment of its sponsors,
CMSP has positively impacted the lives of more than 7,000 children and families—and
its mission continues to grow.
Among those currently receiving care are two sets of siblings whose stories remind us
why CMSP exists: a pair of twins and a set of triplets, both facing extraordinary
circumstances.
Jennifer and Jon Jon, twins currently residing at the Naic Children’s Village, were
admitted last year due to their family’s extreme poverty. Last School Year, a
concerned local pastor brought them to CMSP after witnessing their dire situation.
Their father had already passed away, and their mother had taken work as a
housemaid—unable to care for the twins while employed. The children were left in
the care of their older sister, who had her own young family and was struggling to
meet basic needs. When the twins arrived at CMSP, they were severely malnourished,
unable to walk properly, and visibly affected by prolonged hunger and neglect.
Meanwhile, in CMSP Calaca, triplets Carl, Cedrick, and Clark have become new
symbols of hope. They are three of four siblings in a family residing in the coastal
village of Camastilisan, Calaca, Batangas. Their father, a construction worker with no
stable income, struggled to provide for the children’s education and basic needs. The
family sought help from CMSP, where the triplets are now receiving support and care.
Raising one child in difficult economic conditions is already a challenge—how much
more when that number suddenly doubles or triples? For families like them, CMSP
offers more than assistance—it provides a lifeline, a future, and a chance to dream
again. This May, with the support of CMSP, JonJon and Jennifer graduated from
Kindergarten. A spark of hope is already evident in their bright smiles and shining
faces. They are currently Grade 1 students, while Carl, Cedrick, and Clark are now in
Grade 2.
There’s still a long road ahead for the twins and triplets to reach their full potential.
But with your continued help, we can walk that journey together. Let us extend our
support and compassion to the children of CMSP—because every child deserves a
chance at a better life.
