This agreement solidifies OFI’s role as the primary sponsor, pledging to allocate P25 million over the next five years to support KnK’s programs.
The signing ceremony was attended by key representatives from both OFI and KnK, in attendance were Kenji Sugiyama, Board of Trustee, Okada Foundation Inc., James Lorenzana, President of OFI, Rose Marie Chua, KnK Board of Trustee, and Victoria Wieneke, President of KnK.
KnK started in 2001 with programs in community building by addressing malnutrition. It has since then expanded its scope to poverty alleviation, education, and sustainable community development programs.
With OFI’s P25 million pledge, KnK will be able to set up sustainable food share programs in different schools and barangays across the country.
