1.Anong ginagawa ng Helping Hands?
Researcher, assess the situation after calamity. Rebriefting and give courage verbally to the affected individuals and families.
​
2.Ano po yung problema noong panahong iyon kaya kinailangan tumulong?
Yung kalagayan ng mga naapektuhan. Para kang nakakita ng isang bahay ng langgam na binulabog. Lahat walang masilungan, parang mga basang-sisiw na di alam kung saan magtatago para lamang maka alis sa wasak na sitwasyon.
3.Paano po nakakatulong ang Helping Hands sa Komunidad?
Naging daan ito para sa mga naapektuhan at para sa mga gustong tumulong directly. Naging instrumento siya sa mabilis na recovery. Nagbigay ng panibagong pag-asa. At katulong sa pagbangon mula sa kalamidad.
​
4.Ano pong nagbago sa inyong Komunidad/ pamilya matapos tumulong ang Helping Hands?
Naging matatag sa kabi-kabilang pagsubok na di maiwasang dumating, nabuksan ang isang damdamin na hindi ka pwedeng mag walang bahala sa kung anong pwede mong gawin sa panahon ng dieubyo. Na maiksi lang ang buhay kaya kung anuman ang maaaring mabuting gawin....AY MAGAWA KO NGAYON.

D'Rock / Alpha@D'Rocky
Leader
​
1. What does your ministry do?
We reach out to the youth and strengthen the future generation with the help of God's word.
2.What was your problem? (Sa Generation)
In my opinion, the main problem of our generation is that we have different ideas and concepts far from the prior generations. This creates distance within families and questions about morality in today's youth.
3.How did ascend/ Drock/ Making Disciples (MD)/ Alpha fix/help it?
For me, it wasn't about fixing the problem, it was about helping us realize that the problem was also an advantage and can be something to learn from.
​
4.What has changed after MD/Drock/Alpha was applied in your ministry/ in you?
We learned to be open up about our ideas and talk about it as a group. Alpha, to be specific, changed the way we talk about God. The topics became more interactive and helpful for everyone, including the leaders.
