Felix Y Manalo Foundation

The Felix Y Manalo Foundation is the humanitarian arm of the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church of Christ), dedicated to serving communities through faith-driven outreach and practical assistance. Guided by biblical teachings that emphasize love and concern for others, the Foundation carries out programs in education, healthcare, livelihood support, environmental responsibility, and disaster relief. Its work reaches people in Canada, the United States, the Philippines, Africa, and other parts of the world. Through organized volunteer efforts, the Foundation supports low-income families, Indigenous communities, migrants, youth, and individuals affected by disasters and social challenges.

The mission of the Felix Y Manalo Foundation is to help improve the quality of life of individuals and communities facing poverty, emergencies, health concerns, and social exclusion. It seeks to promote education, public health, environmental care, and socio-economic stability to help build peaceful and productive communities. The Foundation’s work is guided by values of unity, duty, and obedience to God, which shape its approach to humanitarian service. Each initiative is designed to address urgent needs while also supporting long-term development and self-reliance.

Since its establishment, the Foundation has steadily expanded its humanitarian efforts across multiple regions. Its Aid to Humanity initiative reflects this commitment by assisting vulnerable populations affected by economic hardship, natural disasters, or public health crises. In Canada, volunteers support low-income households, new migrants, Indigenous groups, and children facing social barriers. Activities include food distributions, winter clothing drives, and community outreach programs that reach both urban areas and remote communities.

In the United States, the Felix Y Manalo Foundation organizes Aid to Humanity tours across several states. These efforts deliver food, hygiene supplies, school materials, and basic services to communities in need. Outreach programs also support minority groups, Native American communities, seniors, and families experiencing financial difficulty. In Asia, particularly in the Philippines, and in parts of Africa, the Foundation provides disaster response, livelihood assistance, educational programs, and public health services.
