The heart of a volunteer is not measured is size, but by the depth in commitment to make a difference in the lives of others - DeAnn Hollis

Angel Saquibal is our 10 year old volunteer and assistant youth trainer

In MASA Inc, volunteers come from different sectors of our society, you can be a professional, a simple citizen with a heart, a retiree, a senior citizen or youth who all work for a cause, for the advocacy and are happy doing it. You don't have to be rich or professional, if you have a heart and care, your small act of kindness can make a huge difference and impact in someone else's lives.

And we have as young as 10 year old kids like Angel Saquibal who at her early age are already assisting in training workshops and outreach to remote IP villages. These youth are more energetic and most eager in volunteering.

Assembling a solar lamp doesn't have any age requirement. It's the willingness to learn and be able to share your time for a good cause. Some thought that these youth couldn't solder yet the components of a circuit, but they had proven themselves wrong. We had even produced the youngest TESDA certified EPAS NCII in the whole Philippines. She had done some recycling innovations and had taught these to some youth in her school for their recycling projects using the solar circuit she learned from MASA Inc. Margareth Saquibal was even featured in Getty images, GMA 7 and CNN Philippines when she assisted House Speaker Belmonte and the congressmen and women in the House of Representatives.
