Our Mission
Bigyan (Bee-gyan; Meaning "to give" in Tagalog) is a rising unincorporated nonprofit founded by Joshua C. Rimando, Hannah Zamora, and Jules Picache. Our mission is to collect used school and office supplies and distribute them to schools across the Philippines. Supplies will be donated by people of the community and repackaged into care packages that will be given to each student. Every year in the USA, thousands of pounds of school supplies are left unused or wasted. Our mission is to collect these school supplies and send them to impoverished areas across the Philippines. We are currently working on building our organization.
