The Atmosphere Soup Kitchen (ASK)

The Atmosphere Soup Kitchen (ASK) is one of many local initiatives we have created or supported over the years. We continues to support many local initiatives, bringing further social and economic benefits to the local community, such as the Atmosphere Soup Kitchen (ASK).

ASK was founded in June 2011

At ASK, we provide up to 80 children with a balanced lunch five days a week. ASK is located in the community that surrounds the Dumaguete dump site and is considered one of the most impoverished areas. The aim is direct and simple: provide one nutritional balanced meal per day to school children between the ages of 6-12 so that they will stay in school instead of scavenging on the dump site. This also offers the parents an alternative way to provide for their children as the program runs on volunteer duties.

Meals

We provide 80 children with a balanced and nutritious lunch five days a week, lovingly prepared by their parents.

Vitamins

We supply daily vitamins to 80 children, ensuring they receive essential nutrients for their growth and development.

Piggy bank project

We provide five families per batch with piglets to raise and sell after 3-4 months, allowing them to earn profits while returning a portion as capital for the next batch. This creates a sustainable cycle supported by guest donations.

Back-to-school packages

This initiative provides children with school uniforms, school bags, and essential school supplies, ensuring they are equipped for success.

Gifts and Awards

This brings joy to the children by being able to provide rewards for academic achievements, birthday gifts, and Christmas presents.

We visit ASK every week – please inquire at the front desk if you would like to join us or contact [email protected].
