Our mission

Across the Philippines, thousands of children go to bed hungry every night. We believe no child should have to choose between a meal and a future. Helping Hungry Hearts exists to end that choice.

🍞

Feed

Nutritious sandwiches, hot meals, and drinks served daily from our mobile kitchen — driving to where hungry children are.

📚

Educate

Children who stay in school and maintain 85% or above receive full scholarships — from high school through college.

Provide

Jireh means 'God will provide.' We partner with restaurants, bakeries, and groceries to rescue surplus food and multiply every dollar.

Why “Kokoy”?

Kokoy was our word — mine and my wife's. Short for kingkoy, which means monkeys. It started because we'd spend hours every day laughing together, being silly, being us. Instead of “sweetheart” or “darling,” we called each other Kokoy.

She went home to be with the Lord in 2023. Before she left, we dreamed together about one day feeding hungry children in the Philippines — children who have nothing, not even a full meal.

Helping Hungry Hearts is that dream coming alive. Every sandwich prepared, every child who sits down to eat, every scholarship awarded — we do it together. Her love is in every meal.

I named this kokoy.org because this work carries her laughter, her heart, and our shared faith that God provides. Jireh — He will provide. Through you.
