The Heart…
We are a group of change makers who think that every helping hand may make a difference in people's lives by enabling them to have a better future.
MJB Cares is a non-profit, non-stock, or non-governmental organization. Mary Joy Bustamante (MJB), a woman with a passion for rural communities, started the organization.
In urbanized places like Metro Manila and Cebu, the Philippines has seen progress in the medical industry, education, and even our economy. However, poverty and lack of access to these resources still plague our remote communities.
MJB, a woman with little financial means to aid, pushed for and acted on behalf of the poorest provinces in 2013. She made medical missions, food distributions, and school supply distributions feasible by collaborating with a variety of people and organizations. This gesture of goodwill continues and serves the indigenous people’s best interests.
After years of volunteering in various capacities, her work was noticed by well-known organizations. And, in the year 2022, MJB Cares Foundation is registered with the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), not to seek notoriety, but to expand its potential to aid others.
Our approach
Our Mission
"Inspire individuals to live by being compassionate and displaying constructive deeds in their communities."
We want to reach out to the community where everyone has access to healthcare and education; in doing so, our team intends to motivate youngsters to always take a stand and help those in need, just as they were treated and encouraged.
Our Vision
"To enhance people's lives through influencing individuals, groups, and communities whose values are assessed by their ability to give of themselves to others despite hardship."
We want to support orphaned children and their families in rural areas of the Philippines. We’re focusing on fundamental necessities like healthcare, food, education, and safe drinking water, as well as extending the number of people we can help by collaborating with other groups and volunteering.
