ABOUT IHHELPP
IHHELPP grew from a simple desire to share the many blessings that we receive with our friends in the Philippines who need our help. From school supplies to disaster proof homes, we have given support to families in need since 2006. Such efforts evolved into a charitable foundation formed by friends and associates who share the same vision.
Our vision is to create a leveled playing field for the poor by providing improved healthcare, housing, education, and livelihood.
"And after you have obtained a hope in Christ ye shall obtain riches, if ye seek them; and ye will seek them for the intent to do good-to clothe the naked, and to feed the hungry, and to liberate the captive, and administer relief to the sick and the afflicted." Jacob 2:19
