5th Annual Holiday Giving Project Applications
This holiday season, I am able to provide and contribute 30 (and counting) gifts to promote creativity in the OC and LA community! I know it is a bit less than in previous years, as I have allocated a good chunk of funding towards starting another passion project this winter: opening up another study center in Baguio of the Pangasinan Province in the Philippines.
Below are a bunch of items I plan to give to aspiring creatives for the low, low price of FREETY FREE DOLLARS and FREETY FREE CENTS. In other words, there is absolutely no cost.
The "here" link below each item corresponds to its respective application via Google Forms. Only one submission per household. All repeated submissions will be ignored and disregarded. Prospective recipients residing in Orange County are preferred.
Complete the application below by MONDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2024, at 11:59 PM PST.
Applications will be reviewed the following weekend, and selected recipients will be notified via text message by the end of TUESDAY, December 17, 2024.
Drop-off times will be arranged between THURSDAY, December 19, 2024, and MONDAY, December 23, 2024.
If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions or would love to collaborate, please feel free to contact me!
If, for some reason, you are having technical difficulties, please use this link for the generic application:

We are preparing for our 5th annual holiday-giving project. Applications will be up on the 11th of November. Stay tuned! :)
UPDATE 08/04/2024
We will be hosting a backpack drive for our 5th annual back-to-school giving project!
This year, we will be giving away backpacks, school supplies, children's books, and Pokemon cards at the local Wilson Park in Costa Mesa (Address: 360 W Wilson St, Costa Mesa, CA 92627) from 9 AM to 11 AM PST on SATURDAY, August 24, 2024.
In addition, we will also be giving away 4 new laptops that came directly from BestBuy (ASUS X1404 Vivobook with a laptop sleeve). As much as I love using Apple MacBooks, I went with the more economical route and purchased 4 ASUS laptops instead. I also did a stress test, and this particular laptop does a much better job than the Chromebooks and other Windows entry laptops that I've compared.
There are 4 available, and the recipients are as categorized:
1 reserved for a student in grades K-5
1 reserved for a student in grades 6-8
1 reserved for a student in grades 9-12
1 reserved for a student in college and beyond
I also have a new desk and office chair available for a student who would like a more comfortable study area. Growing up, I didn't have much, so I would like to continue giving back to the community.
Everyone and anyone is welcome to apply.
If interested in receiving a laptop, please fill out the form to its entirety.
Application link for the laptops:

Applications are due on Thursday, August 22, 2024 at 11:59 PM PST.
Recipients will be contacted in the morning on Friday, August 23, 2024.
Pick up will be arranged at either the backpack drive on Saturday, August 24, 2024 or upon request.
If you have any questions, comments, suggestions, or would love to collaborate, please feel free to contact me!
UPDATE 12/18/23: APPLICATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED, AND WE'LL BE CONTACTING RECIPIENTS ON TUESDAY, 12/19/23, AND WEDNESDAY, 12/20/23, TO SET UP DROPOFF AND MEETUP TIMES. THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO APPLY AND WISHING YOU A HAPPY HOLIDAY!
Living is giving. Giving is living. Repeat.
As of November 2023, I am opening up some of my giving projects to the public, where anyone can access and apply for free resources below.
For the most part, I will use this page to redistribute goodies to those underresourced in Orange County (with some exceptions to LA County).
ANYWAYS... LET'S TALK ABOUT THE GOOD STUFF!
This holiday season, I decided to do something a tad bit different while still contributing to promoting creativity in the OC community!
