1. Introduction Health is wealth. Everyone believes in this saying because it is absolutely true and relevant to each and every individual in a society. Health is everything regardless the age, the gender and anything in between. Our project of medicine giving to the children of Camiguin is a way to help them to be strong and motivated in achieving their goals and dreams. The project can also benefit the marketing students if Colegio de San Juan de Letran on being sensitive and helpful to the real situation of the youth in the said society. This project is a step for them to be responsible for other people’s circumstances. Due to the unfortunate condition on the medical support, it is tough and hard for the children to get the health sustenance that led the partner students to focus on the medicine. If all the children and youth are vigorous and complete with the medicines that are essentials, they will be driven enough to strive hard in attaining anything they dreamed to be in the future.

2. Marketing Strategy As a student our marketing strategy to gain some money in our donation is to talk some college students and explain our propaganda about our thing that we need to buy on our money that have gathered on students and we will buy medicines that our propaganda we will help children of Camiguin because they are lack of medicine that they need because not all of the doctors can reach out them Letran community will provide basic needs such as medicine and give them some brochures how to use our medicine kit whether what kind of medicine that they will drink if they have some kind of ache in their body not only the medicine and knowledge we want to see their smile by our own eyes so that we know that our propaganda is helpful. Helping other children is one of the main reason why we did this product because seeing them in pain will actually hurt our feelings so we make this thing so we can help people even we are students so for us we need to talk all people in Letran community so they can help us and our family to because we don’t have enough money cause we are students and do not have work to fulfil all their needs about on medicine thing so we can help them to fulfil their dreams by helping them. So therefore, I conclude that giving them a lot of help through medicine can fulfil our heart that we can help people that need medicines through their health conditions and lesser the pain that they having now or can take away the pain that their having right now.

4. Sustainability and Practicality We ask the people for a spare of change as a donation for the children of Camiguin. It is more practical for other people to donate because it doesn’t affect much of their money use for daily expenses. We can’t ask people to give us medicine because we do not have the rights to demand such a thing and we don’t have prescriptions from doctors, so we can only ask for money, spare of their change and we, the students will ask the community which medicine is more appropriate to buy to give as donations for children and then we use the collected money to buy medicine for the children of Camiguin. It is more sustainable because everyone has a change to spare, and every day people rise from their beds and go to work, rides jeepney, buys lunch, food. At the end of the day they will have extra money that doesn’t get used, so we humbly ask for their spare money to be donated and be used to buy medicine.

5. Conclusion To conclude, this project aim to help and provide a good quality of life for the good sake of the future of every child in Camiguin. Through donations conducted by our group through the use of donation letter that we are giving to those people who are willing to give. After the collection of the donation we are going to some of medicine that will help the community of Camiguin because health is one of the important to take care. A simple donation of medicine is equivalent to a thousand smiles of Camiguin children whom we are going to give. It is a privilege for our group to donate medicines because we believe that donating to the causes you care about not only benefits the charities themselves, it can be deeply rewarding for you too. Millions of people give to charity on a regular basis to support causes they believe in, as well as for the positive affect it has on their own lives. It is a heart-warming to see those children seeing them having a good health to the near future. We also pursue this project of giving medicines to children of Camiguin because giving may improve physical health and longevity is that it helps decrease stress, which is associated with a variety of health problems. It is their rights to have a good health in life. We also learn that if you give something to other people, don’t expect something in return. Not all of us have kind-hearted. We should face the fact that most of us our lack of financial but in simple way, you can still help without of money. If you want to help, it should come from your heart. We also acknowledge those people who insisted to help us because they also want to help those children of Camiguin. It is enough for us see children achieving their goals and being successful with their lives. To sum it all up, it is an honour for us to help those children and to also help the society to lessen children who are lack of having a good health.

6. Appendices It’s been our desire to help the poor and give whatever we can do to help them and giving them hopes to achieve their dreams. We have seen the poor and other people suffering poverty. And us student we’ve been assigned to help the poor by seeking donation to our fellow Letranite to help the poor to buy enough medicine to give them to prolong their life. Other students were also assigned to ask donation to our classmates to give school supplies to help them pursue their dreams and others were also assigned to give food and clothes so they’ll have something to eat and wear every day. So, the donations of the people we got these past few days’ means to much to us because even such a small amount you can see the eagerness of the people to help. So, these donations that we have collected will all go to the people who needed help and hope that they will still have a good life and living life to the fullest.

7. Reflection Venn Justin Reyes
We are the students of Colegio de San Juan de Letran, that is task to help the Children of Camiguin, we as a group approach the people to help us achieve our task to help by simply asking for spare of change, by donating so that we can buy those Children of Camiguin some medicines in order for them to have a healthy living and survive sickness throughout the day. We have enjoyed helping other people because I feel that I have something accomplished good. We inspire other people to do as what we did by simply lecturing or telling them how we feel about to those children and it touched their hearts because with every little change we can change their future. It hit me a lot, made me realize that we should act well and good even though it’s little, because every little thing we do, become big if everyone do it and unite.

I always thought it was better to receive than to give, but when our school assigned us to underwent to donate school supplies, books, and medicines to the children of Camiguin Batanes that is located in Northern part of the Philippines, I realized that it’s better to give than to receive. Upon the arrival of our request letter by asking the help of others such as friends and classmates through giving their wholeheartedly donation. There are advantages through gift giving of providing direct support is that you can know exactly how your money is being spent. For example, if you give money directly to people in your local village or town, you can see where it has gone. Another benefit is that you can see the impacts on those you are helping, which can lead not only to great personal satisfaction but also to respect from others in the local community who appreciate the work you do and donating those stuffs to the children of Camiguin is really a big help for them to acquire their wishes to have a good and quality education that we can share to them. Donating to larger charities with an international reach means having the knowledge that you are involved in issues of fundamental global importance, such as curing diseases and human rights, or helping those caught up in tragic environmental events, such as flooding, earthquakes and famines. In conclusion, given the benefits of both, I would argue that an individual should make their own choice based on their personal preferences and whichever provides them with
the most personal satisfaction. What is crucial is that we continue to give to those who are more in need than ourselves.

Our group created a paper and we turned it over to our fellow Letranites to ask for a donation for our project to buy medicines for children in Camiguin. We are happy that we have helped the children so that our fellow Letranites have been here also to help. We are happy with the results of our donation request. One of our group's works has almost switched the entire case just to get a donation for our project. It's fun to be helpful to everyone. We are happy to share to all of you that even if our donation is not enough, we will do our best to purchase all of the medicines for children in Camiguin. We do not know what to expect when we get help and we have helped other people. It is better to help others that are our group motivation.

Our project is to donate medicine to the Camiguin children’s. The donation drive we implemented those children of Camiguin. We implemented this kind of project for us to help children who are lack of financial support to go the hospital and have at least a month of check-up. For me it is hard because some of the people can’t afford to take good care of their help due to poverty and other finances. But with the help of our group and others who donate i can say that it is successful. This made my marketing skills mote enhance because this project that we made is critically based on how we convince people to donate money or medicine to the people that who need them. I want to thank the people who help us because they have the heart to trust us and donate to the children. It made me a happy person because i know that i helped the one who is in need. This also builds by characteristic to be a more on hand person. I learned that it is better to give than to receive because i also learn what is right and what is wrong and what i need and want. Aerold Jake Garlan Helping who are in need are the best feeling in the world because seeing someone happy because that someone provided all the needs that he/she need. As a Letranite it is our duty to do whatever is right so we’re helping anyone as long as we can. So we’ve asked a lot of students in Letran if they could help
someone who are in need. With no hesitation they’re ready to help. So all the donations that we’ve made we will use it to buy medicines. Because the poor obviously are not in good health because they don’t have money to spare to buy anything they need like food, water, shelter instead they’re living in the streets and exposed to sickness and many kinds of bacteria that could get in their system. So we’ve decided to buy medicines to give to the poor so that they could have hoped to live and achieve what they want in life. Randrebb Villar I always want to help people likely children because helping them make us happy and move away the pain and our tired so for us helping children in Camiguin gave us confidence that we can help people in other way not by giving money by giving them some medicine so some body pains or ache on their body can easily remove not all the children parents have a decent job to get them in hospital because not all the people in province finish college because lack of money, education and many more so for us students from Letran Manila what we can do so we can help them on their medicine problem. We send some letters to the people that are close to us so they can give us some donation that we need in our project many people give donations and help us to buy some medicines that able for kids because helping them is our goal on this project and on this project this make me a matured person because knowing enough what is the good thing to do and bad thing to do. So therefore I conclude that helping people Is a good idea in terms of children helping them and it’s better to give than receive and share blessings from our lord god. Jhomar Real Doing this activity help me become a better person, because with little act I help other people become alive, giving medicines to those in need is a good thing because they might really need it. If they are sick we can give them a hand or lend a hand by donating medicines to them, Letran become a bridge for us to help the children of Camiguin.
