Welcome to Tulong Pinoy-the Cyber NGO! Our mission is to support needy Filipinos by making use of information and communication technology in building partnership and empowerment-sharing with individuals and organizations, and by informing and mobilizing Filipinos all over the world in order for them to take an active role in poverty alleviation. Our vision is to see that every Filipino is poverty-free, educated, enterprising and productive; living in dignity, peace and in Bayanihan spirit.

TULONG PINOY (TP) started in April, 1998 by helping the Matigsalog tribe of LUMaDS-Dev (Livelihood for a United Matigsalogs' Determination towards Sustainable Development) with Sister Dionisia Quela, FI of the Daughters of Jesus Congregation in Malabog area of Davao during the El Nino. It continued its way to promote helping-direct opportunities by mobilizing a nationwide fund drive in Japan in June, 1998 with Filipino and non-Filipino scholars and colleagues to assist the transport of the remains of a fellow Monbusho scholar. It had another focus when it started Iskolar-Pinoy program in June, 1999, targeted to help poor but deserving Filipino students in the Philippines through migrants' sponsorship and empowerment. Partnership being the key utilizing ICT as the tool to make it all happen, it has established significant linkages covering various sectors such as indigenous people, women, urban poor, migrants and migrants' children, environment and mass computer literacy. A very interesting partnership-building on the rise is the empowerment of local folks to help their native towns by means of scholarships and livelihood project-support groups. The use of mailing lists and other online facilities is becoming very useful in reaching out to our kababayans from different parts of the world.

TP is not mainly boxed in giving and providing support but to give people a gist to start a productive and decorous life through proper education. The movement unequivocally presents a picture of immense poverty that in a sense not a disease but only a status wherein man, himself, through his willingness to survive can eradicate it and this can easily be achieved if everyone has this sort of enthusiasm. TP gives us a clearer angle to study on how we, as social animal, must conduct ourselves towards the other people. We all have eyes but we need to share our sight to those who are in the dark. We all have ears but we need to listen to the sentiments of our fellowmen. We all have hands but we need to lend them to those who cannot reach. We are all dreaming but we need to make others become part of our dream.

In a larger sense, TP is being-with-others and through-others. Just like the Bible says and what TP promotes: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach him to fish and you feed for a lifetime. Roll up you sleeves and be one among others dedicated to help alleviate poverty in the Philippines!
