“Feeding Program” for the indigenous children
The Aetas are one of the eight major groupings of Indigenous People that can be found in the Philippines. The groupings – composed of the Negritos of Luzon, Igorots, Mangyans, Tribes of Palawan, Ati, Tribes of Panay, Lumads and Bajaos – are futher subdivided into more than 100 ethno-linguistc groups spread out across over 60 percent of the country’s provinces.
IP groups like the Aetas suffer in extreme poverty due to numerous reasons like ownership issues of ancestral lands, absence of sustainable source of livelihood, good education and natural calamities caused by typhoons just to name a few. Communities like the aforementioned are usually small and would often depend on donations and outreach programs by different organizations.
Sales Rain has made it a priority of the company to actively participate and contribute in improving the overall well-being of the country for everyone – and that includes the often times neglected IP groups and ethnic minorities.

The event was organized with the goal of giving the children the education that they deserve. According to the 2016 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (Apis), Philippines has about 3.8 out-of-school children and youth ranging from as early as 6 years old to 24 years old. The company firmly believes that education is one of the most powerful weapon in fighting poverty and by helping kids get the education they deserve, we are helping shape a generation of future scholars.
According to Mr. Billy Espina, “We don’t need expensive or beautiful notebooks in order to learn, all we need is the willingness of the mind and heart”. Inspiring the children and teachers that as long as we have the will, there is always a way – a philosophy that Sales Rain embeds into its employees and company values.
In addition to this, the event gave a change of scenery to its employees in hopes of inspiring them to work harder in making a difference to its community.
Sales Rain will continue to extend its blessing to those in need and give a helping hand in shaping a better future for the younger generation, with the support of everyone from the company.
