Medical project is one of the activities in Mindanao Children’s Library. Our main activity is the (reading) a story telling to the children, we visited in different places especially the Muslim and Lumad children. MCL will help those children through visiting some places and if ever we can find some children that have an abnormality in life, we’ll help those children. But we could’t help if we didn’t see that child personally and talk to their parent.

During our visitation in different barangay’s and met Indigenous children and if ever there is a child that has an abnormality, we can help this child heartily. We couldn’t pass by and find those kinds of children then help because it is only a small organization and if we want to help, we can help it voluntarily.

We visited in Pikit and that time we found hare-lipped children. Those children were Muslim people. We also conducted a story telling to barangay Cabangbangan and we found a Lumad child that has an abnormality in life. And MCL wants to help that child. 

Medical Project is the project that can help to those children that has any defect in their lives especially hare-lipped children. It is not a big organization but we provide medicine. It is not a medical mission but it is only a medical project, a small project. And not all the time MCL provides medicines for these children. It must be in step-by-step method.

          We are going to support those children because we want to help them. And reading in different Indigenous places, especially refugee camp, is the most important activity in this organization to help the children not in physically but emotionally. These children need a lot of attention from the sacrifices they experienced. Their feeling has a lot of fear and frightened from the shooting they encounter lack of attention from anybody, and many problems in their lives during their childhood life. Children are the center of this activity. And everywhere we go we focused children especially Muslims at a refugee camp and Lumad children.
