My Inspiration

Mr. Luis O Arandia, Sir.

My father was a man of unwavering principles, guided by a strong work ethic and a deep love for people. He believed true success wasn’t about wealth but how you treated others, especially those less fortunate. Family and community were central to his life, and he lived by the values of humility, kindness, and generosity. Whether helping a stranger or lending a hand to a neighbor, he always gave without hesitation. His example of giving and compassion is the foundation's driving force today.

My mother is a woman of steadfast values, grounded in a strong work ethic and a genuine care for others. She believes real success wasn’t defined by wealth, but by how you treated people, particularly those in need. Family and community were at the heart of everything she dose, and she embodied humility, generosity, and kindness. Whether it is helping a stranger or supporting a neighbor, she gives selflessly. Her spirit of compassion and generosity continues to inspire the foundation's mission today.
