What we do

Working with Bangon Mobilizers, Inc. gives partners the opportunity to serve others in a cross-culture nature. Bangon was organized to specifically serve the indigenous people of the Philippines. Its programs and services are focused on the formation of indigenous communities engaged in transformational development. Partners demonstrate love for the indigenous people and service as an expression of personal vocation. They travel to indigenous people’s communities from time to time and may be exposed to rigorous travel with basic, rudimentary accommodation facilities; consequently, they are expected to demonstrate flexibility and adaptability in adapting to community life. Learning local language is encouraged, and cultural sensitivity is a must, in community building and for effective project implementation.

Cross-cultural work. – We currently engage various communities by facilitating mindset transformation in the stewardship of their GOD-given resources – natural wealth, family, relationships, time and talent.

We assist in the education of indigenous high school students by providing financial aid, school logistics and supplies, tutoring services and values sessions. This vital service has been enhanced by involving their teachers and their families in the process, thereby opening a host of engagement opportunities in the areas of modern education techniques, community development and livelihood projects, functional literacy among their unlettered, health and sanitation and community transformation in general. Thus far, we have had a good number high school graduates (35 as of this writing), who, we are inspiring to pursue a trade or profession relevant to their community.

We also help in building startup school structures, provide school supplies, medical kits and chairs for elementary students, paving the way for partnership with the local parent-teachers association (PTA).

In collaboration with other NGOs, we provide regular medical missions (at least twice a year) and monthly training for health volunteers, as well as community education in health and sanitation.

We participate in regular values training of indigenous tribal communities, as well as in cultural exchanges among their young people, both Muslim and non-Muslim.

Missions mobilization. – Vision casting, cross-cultural orientation, Bible story crafting, Kairos and other missions training; deliberate preaching and discipleship, as well as inspiring churches from various denominations, towards reaching the 13.
