SHARE BLESSINGS
A Christmas gesture carried by my family
I could not be there personally, but that did not have to end the plan. My family represented me at ZNAC Elementary School, sharing Jollibee meals with preschool pupils.

This story is told in words because I do not have event photographs available.
Not every meaningful activity is documented with a camera. The details below come from what I remember and the information I can confirm.
Giving can continue even when I cannot be there
The second Share Blessings activity was for preschool pupils at ZNAC Elementary School in my hometown in Tampilisan, Zamboanga del Norte. We arranged Jollibee meals for the students, but I could not attend in person. Instead, my family was there to handle the activity. This became an important part of what Share Blessings means to me: it does not have to revolve around my presence or my name.
My family carried the intention
There was no elaborate event to document, and I do not have photographs to share from this occasion. What I do have is the memory of choosing to support something at home and knowing my family would take care of the distribution. I wanted the children to be considered during a season when many people look forward to something special. Sometimes the most useful role is simply to prepare the support and trust others to do the work well.
Support that helped make it possible
Once again, Ma’am Jennie Jackson, founder of GenSphire, shared a small amount to help with the activity. I appreciate that contribution and my family’s time. A personal idea became an effort that more than one person could carry.
The lesson I keep returning to
I did not have to stand in the classroom to care about what happened there. Share Blessings is about remembering other people and doing what is possible with the resources available, even when work, distance or circumstances prevent me from attending. If I have the means to continue future activities, I hope that same spirit stays with them.
