For us living here in the Philippines, of course, rice would complete our every meal. For me, I just can’t say no to rice. I am thrilled to have witnessed the launch of Harvesting Reverence in LAV Farm, Calauan Laguna.
And while we enjoy rice, our farmers belong to the bottom 50% earners in the country.
Lingap Leads Foundation Inc. is a non-profit organization that aims to help and support our Filipino farmers. They commit to uplift the nation’s marginalized rural communities while having a cohesive society that stands in full solidarity with farmers, striving for their overall welfare and prosperity.
Dra. Angelique Malveda opening remarks.
Aside from that, there are Three Targeted Programs exclusively to our farmers such as:
Lingap Kasaka – program that promote livelihood, health, and welfare of farmers.
Lingap Kapatid – program that assist brothers and sisters in need through collaborations with various foundation
Lingap Kapamilya – created programs to help and provide opportunities in Malveda Holdings Corporation to contribute.
During the launch, we get to experience becoming a farmer for a day. With the scorching sun and muddy ground, it is truly not a joke to plant these rice stalks in the field. Indeed, magtanim at di biro!
