Blue helps to balance our journeys together with Peace of Mind, Trust and Reliability, Stability and Structure to name a few structural beams of the foundation we lay.

Artists will use oil, acrylic or watercolor paints and many more paints to achieve a masterpiece! We prefer universal canvas types and paint that fit the situation or circumstance we encounter. Our canvases universal in nature are inclusive to all! The young scholars of Kapalong, Tagum City, and Barangay Upo Maitum Sarangi Province are the canvases we in our fledgling debut we take pride in.

Our Spiritual Empowerment
We believe in the teachings of Jesus Christ! We believe in Acts 2:38 and Romans 6:1-10. Is our call to action for all who desire to follow Jesus Christ! And we share these beliefs with you! Acts 2:38 urges us to pursue Christ through true Repentance, Baptism in Jesus Name for the removal of sins and receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost which is the New Birth Experience. We believe that applying these 3 steps completes God complete Plan of Salvation. Hebrews 6:1 encourages us to move beyond the elementary teachings of the 3 steps of Jesus Christ Complete Plan of Salvation and go on to maturity not laying again the Foundation of Repentance. Verse 9 explains that there are better things that accompany Salvation, and in following Christ he remembers your Labor of Love with promotion to true purpose!
Our Masterpieces
The stories of those we serve matter greatly! Our concern is to lay a firm financial foundation where our young scholars can achieve their educational dreams without the stresses of how they will achieve it! We exist to paint a better tomorrow and a great journey along the way! This doesn’t mean there will not be any struggles, it simply means we are here to assist and travel along the way with you!
We are committed to success in our partnering with our young scholars, we agree for a brighter future for each of them! Our impact is meant to strengthen the confidence needed to navigate a quality education whereby class participation comes naturally, and the experience is enjoyed and remembered in a positive light! We will add the necessary shadowing to bring the best of each of our students, the necessary textures so that they believe they can achieve it and the necessary tones that agree in contrast with beautiful outcomes.

Education Program
It began with a promise—made on a dusty red road in DelMonico banana country, Kapalong, on November 26, 2023, while heading to baptize 9 souls in Jesus’ Name.
That day, I was asked to ride with two young ladies. One called me Mama—a word that shook my soul and fulfilled a promise God made during my season of grief.
Months before, I had mourned deeply the loss of my nephew Daequan, the son I never had. As a barren woman, I carried the quiet pain of emptiness and exclusion. But God, in His divine way, answered my sorrow with unexpected joy.
That November encounter began a journey of love and healing. I became a single mother to those girls—and soon, to many more daughters and sons. Together, we’ve shared tears, victories, and deep love that only God could have authored.
This is not just my story—it is our beginning, a testimony of grace, promise, and family.
(Proverbs 31:28, Isaiah 54:5)
