OUR HISTORY
The work started in 1995 even before Gawad Kalinga was officially formed into an organization in 2003. Walk through our history as we mark important milestones and learnings from two decades of walang iwanan.

OUR REACH
Gawad Kalinga continuously maps barangays/communities where the poorest of the poor are. Through our vast network of partners and volunteers on-ground, we are able to deliver assistance where and when it is needed the most.
OUR PARTNERS
Poverty in the Philippines is massive. There are more people at the bottom of the pyramid than there are on top and in order to reverse this social problem, everyone must be part of the solution. Gawad Kalinga continues to rally all sectors of society to help in the vision of a poverty-free nation.

OUR MISSION LEADERS
 We are called to be heroes for the poorest, for the least. This is the true essence of beauty. When we are able to dream when we cannot. You are a part of that growing army.”
LUIS OQUIÑENA
CHAIRMAN |
Walang iwanan (leave no one behind) is our commitment to the poor. It is a testament of patriotism fuelled by faith. It is an act of faith deepened by patriotism. Insha’allah (God willing), we will end poverty in our lifetime.”
