The Mindoro Tribe and Oil Spill in the Philippines

The indigenous communities of the Mindoro region in the Philippines have been facing a crisis. An oil spill has severely impacted the local ecosystem, threatening the livelihoods of thousands of people who call this region their home. The damage caused by this disaster has been devastating, and it is the vulnerable communities who are paying the heaviest price.


The oil spill has not only caused harm to the environment but has also resulted in the loss of jobs for many people in the area. The indigenous communities that have lived in harmony with nature for centuries have been left helpless, struggling to find means to provide for their families.


In light of this dire situation, it is crucial that we all do our part to help these communities recover from the impact of the oil spill. We, Forgotten Places, Inc. are working to provide relief to those affected by the spill and help them find new job opportunities. We encourage you to consider supporting these organizations, which are making a real difference in the lives of those affected by this crisis.


Let's all come together and support these communities in any way we can. By supporting us, we can help these communities recover from the impact of this disaster and provide new job opportunities that will help them build a better future.


"We made it to the mountains of the Mindoro tribe in the Philippines to bring resources including shoes to this forgotten tribe. A recent oil spill has affected the livelihood of so many. What an honor it is to live with them and be the hands and feet of Jesus. We share this to ask for more help to reach the forgotten. We can do more together! Please donate to Forgotten Places, Inc. where 100 percent of all donations are given to meet the needs of these people. We are ordinary people with extraordinary hearts to help alleviate poverty. None of our team takes a salary. We give out of our hearts to change the world." - Sharon Fletcher, CEO of Forgotten Places, Inc.
