October 2005 the foundation launched a free Halloween Charity which was held at the San Andres Sports Stadium. The event was graciously supported by the Mayor of Manila, Mayor Lito Atienza.
The theme was to bring about public awareness of the foundation’s mission, which is to act for/on Poverty Relief, Medical Relief; Educational Relief; and Disaster Relief, programs which go towards improving the life style, education, and medical treatment for children and families of children who are disadvantaged because of poverty. Namely Street Children, who reside on the streets of Manila, Philippines.

In September 2005 the foundation sponsored a Bingo afternoon in effort to raise funds for the upgrading of fire fighting equipment for the San Andres Volunteer Fire Brigade. The event although successful was unable to reach its target for the much needed funds. Subsequently the foundation was able to secure a donation for the balance of the required funds.
