ANAK KO has held its 1st few Board-of-Directors (AKO BOD) quarterly meetings to induct new officers and discuss fundraising. Aside from memorial markers and scholarships, the AKO BOD also decided to add care packages for grieving parents, like some of us founders💝🧺The Board also had a consensus that AKO not only offers financial support, but also emotional support, as well. Now we have a CARE acronym for CARE packages + CHRISTmas CARE-oling CARE-oke to cheer up bereaving families: Community Advocates Render Empathy
