Allan Pineda, also known as Apl de Ap of the Black Eyed Peas, journeyed from the Philippines to the United States to fulfill a dream for his family and for his future. He has always held a deep desire to give back to children that have similar stories like his from his homeland and throughout Asia. His vision is simply stated through the actions of giving and reminding oneself and the world that there is no separation between race, class or gender. Ultimately, Allan reminds others that all children deserve a home, food, education and healthcare. With this sentiment that Allan wears as a badge of conviction, he is committed to giving back to his homeland through his Apl Foundation Fund administered by Give2Asia. With the fund being in its first year of creation and fully accepting the Apl Foundation will grow and metamorphous into the financial means needed to support his homeland. Apl has decided to focus on the following for remainder of 2008 and 2009:
Mission: The Apl Foundation is committed to giving back to communities and children within the Philippines and throughout Asia. The foundation will start by raising funds to support immediate need projects within the Philippines. Each year Apl and his team will evaluate and select a project(s) that needs support. Each project will be provided with financial aid and awareness generated within the local and global communities. In addition, a portion of the dollars raised will be reserved for distribution to organizations supporting disaster relief in the event of natural and man made disasters impact the Philippines and other Asian communities.
