Testimonials
“Bilang isang lider, masaya po ako na tumutulong sa aking kapwa magulang. Iyun pong tulong na hindi naghangad ng anumang kapalit. Excited din po ako sa araw-araw lalo na kung maraming blessing na naibibigay sa mga batang ERDA at mga pamilya na aktibo sa aming nextwork sa iba’t ibang ahensya o eskwelahan tulad ng De La Salle – COSCA [Center for Social Concern and Action].”
– Annaliza Esguerra, President, Katuparan Kabalikat sa Kaunlaran (ERDA Parents’ Association), & Gawad Lasalyano 2023
“Sobrang laking tulong po ng Erda Foundation lalo na po ang kanilang binigay na school supplies, school bag, miscellaneous allowance at iba pa noong nasa high school pa ako. Kami po ay limang magkakapatid at hindi po namin kayang bumili ng school supplies dahil madalas ay sakto lang po ang sahod ni Papa para sa pagkain namin. Kung hindi po ako beneficiary ng ERDA, baka nagtratrabaho na po ako at hindi na nag-aaral. Thankful po ako pati ang family ko sa patuloy nilang suporta sa akin hanggang sa college.”
