Our Founder
Mark Priagula Dolorosa, the second child in his family, began his education at Don Bosco Technical Institute in Victorias City, an all-boys school for his primary years. He continued his high school education at Trinity Christian School, a Chinese institution in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental. Mark initially pursued a BS in Fine Arts, majoring in Interior Design, at La Consolacion College in Bacolod, but financial constraints prevented him from completing the program.
Despite these challenges, his brother encouraged him to continue his studies, enrolling him at Philippine Christian University in Manila, where Mark earned an associate degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management (HRM). After graduating, he worked for four years as a food counter attendant at the Post Hotel and Spa in Lake Louise, Canada, before returning home due to struggles with depression.
In 2019, Mark founded this local charity with a simple yet powerful vision: 'Touching Hearts, Changing Lives.' Despite personal hardships, his journey shows that even from humble beginnings, one can make a meaningful impact. As a member of the Persons with Disabilities (PWD) community, Mark continues to inspire others with his compassionate spirit and dedication to helping those in need.
Founder's Vision
When Mark founded this local charity, the vision was to create a group of individuals who serve others with genuine joy. Over the past five years, that vision has been successfully realized. However, Mark's aspirations for the charity continue to grow. In the coming years, the charity plans to adopt schools, support Aeta and barangay communities, and build a semi-private mental health center. This center will focus on helping Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) suffering from psychosis and similar mental health issues in rural areas, providing free or affordable professional care to those in need.
Invest in hope and kindness.
