00:00If ever it's farmers and fishermen's month, it's hard to harvest and the farmers can't plant because of the high temperature.

00:12So in the continuation of Operation Bayanihan,

00:15some farmers in summer were left with the help of Jimmy Capuso Foundation.

00:20At the back of the quiet and peaceful life of the residents here in San Jorge, in Samar,

00:31the soldiers spread out in the area.

00:36This place and other upland barangays have been the hotbed of insurgency for many decades now.

00:45But the residents have another battle ahead of them, the drought.

00:53Maribik hasn't been able to plant rice yet because there's no rain.

00:58Some of her crops are already dry.

01:01That's why they rely on their sari-sari store.

01:06My crops, like bananas, peanuts, grapefruits, and corn, have not been harvested because of the hot weather.

01:16Eileen, on the other hand, is accepting the drought so that she can have money to spend.

01:22Her crops of vegetables and milk are also affected by the drought.

01:27I send my students to college.

01:32My son is also there. Sometimes, he doesn't have anything to eat.

01:37He just studies, drinks coffee, and reviews.

01:39We depend on the rain. We don't have irrigation here.

01:42Every May, Farmers' Month is celebrated in the country.

01:48That's why Jimmy Capuso Foundation chose a remote place in Samar to send help to the farmers.

01:57We gave food packs and hygiene kits to 38 barangays.

02:03There's also a feeding program for children and adults.

02:07We are very grateful.

02:09Our farmers became beneficiaries of this program of Jimmy Capuso Foundation.

02:16For those who want to join our projects, you can deposit to our bank accounts or send to Cebuan alone here.

02:24We're getting online via G-Cash, Shopee, Lazada, and Metrobank Credit Card.
