My mom has been a volunteer worker for many years , from being a day care teacher before , she also became a barangay nutrition scholar (BNS) whose reaponsiblity is to check children all over the village , their monthly weight , provide free vitamins for them , remind parents about their vaccination , and of there are further medical needs , she's also the one to assist the child's family for all the necessary things needed. Now mom is working as part of MSWDO ( Municipal Social Welfare Development Office ) at the same time still working as BNS . Still she cares for kids in each of the village in the municipalities .

Last time , the office of MSWD conducted the national Children's month at a small rural barangay / village , in Burbuli , in Oriental Mindoro Philippines. The barangay was chosen to where the event will be held because it was recorded as the most remote and both kids and parents need proper education and lecture about proper nutrition and the head of the village requested for it.

The event ended well, everyone was so thankful and kids were so happy. It's really the volunteerism and love and care that shows up on this day. Hope many more will be as kind as these people. But we have to always remember that kids are indeed gifts from UP ABOVE and that we have to treat them the way they should be , because they'll be the one to represent our future generation.
