Hapag ng Pag-asa (Table of Hope)

We are all familiar with the painting of Leonardo da Vinci's " Last Suffer". Now the a timely version of Last Suffer was painted by Filipino artist Joey Velasco. Here Joey replace the characther of the apostols with the street children.

For me this painting is a calling for every individual that this is the best time to show how we care for the youth, the next leader of our nation. All of us have a responsibility to our neighbor as the bible tell us " ...love one another..."

Street children is now one of the worst problem not only in the Philippines but worldwide. The number of street children grow everyday as we suffer the world financial crisis.

The painting of Joey Velasco is an awakening for everyone that we can do something to save the street children. we can give hope and love to those unfortunate people by sharing our time and money. Hand in hand we can help them, start with a very small amount to donate into the charity. Imagine if 12 million Filipinos donate P1 everyday how much it is in one week?

Big things start from small beggining.
