MANDALUYONG CITY – The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) formally turned over ₱490,000.00 in financial assistance to Oasi Di Gioia Per Bambine Foundation Inc. during a check turnover ceremony held at the PCSO Main Office in Mandaluyong City on May 20, 2026.

The assistance was granted under the agency’s Institutional Partnership Program (IPP), which provides support to qualified institutions and organizations delivering social welfare and community-based services.

PCSO General Manager Melquiades Robles led the turnover ceremony and personally handed over the check to Sr. Margie Cabantog, Executive Director of Oasi Di Gioia Per Bambine Foundation Inc.

The financial assistance will support the foundation’s project, “Healthy Girls, Hopeful Tomorrow,” which aims to augment the institution’s limited financial resources and ensure the continued provision of nutritional meals and access to medical, dental, and psychological care for its 20 beneficiaries.

Based in Muntinlupa City, Oasi Di Gioia Per Bambine Foundation Inc. is a non-stock, non-profit religious organization established through the efforts and support of the Religious Sisters of the Daughters of St. Joseph of Caburlotto, together with their lay partners and benefactors.

For the past eight years, the foundation has served as a child-caring home and welfare agency, providing alternative parental care and a nurturing environment for neglected, surrendered, orphaned, abandoned, dependent, and foundling girls aged 3 to 18. The organization is duly accredited by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).

Through the IPP, PCSO continues to strengthen partnerships with institutions committed to promoting the welfare and well-being of vulnerable sectors, in line with its mandate of delivering timely and meaningful assistance to communities nationwide.
