About Heaven's Crumbs

---

 Our individual charity efforts led us to the same dinner table in Staten Island on November 7, 2022. As we shared our stories of helping those in need, we discovered a shared vision that ignited our passion to make an even greater impact together. With excitement and determination, we forged a powerful alliance and officially launched Heaven's Crumbs during the last Filipino Simbang Gabi at Sacred Heart parish on December 23, 2022. From that moment on, our hearts were united, and as one, we set forth on a journey of compassion and transformation, spreading blessings to those who need it most.

We are committed to empowering one person at a time, recognizing that even the smallest act of kindness can create a ripple effect of positive change. We strive to inspire and encourage those we help to pay it forward and become blessings to others in their communities. We embrace the personal touch in our approach, understanding that person-to-person connection has the power to make a lasting impact on lives. Through this heartfelt approach, we aim to transform the lives of those we serve, one by one, and cultivate a network of empowered individuals, united in creating a brighter future for all.

As stewards of the resources entrusted to us, we are committed to maintaining clear records and sharing comprehensive financial reports regularly. Our transparent approach ensures that every donation is utilized efficiently and effectively to support our mission of empowering the less fortunate.
