Gawad Kalinga Tampa has recently completed the GK Tampa Village No. 2 with the help of the community at large in Tampa Bay. GK Tampa Village No. 1 was completed years ago in Mandaue, Cebu. Other GK villages have been built by GK Tampa Bay financed by generous private donors. To date, GK Tampa has built two villages financed by the Tampa community and seven more villages finance by private donors. Each of these villages has 20 homes for the formerly homeless.
Gawad Kalinga is a global movement that started in the Philippines whose main purpose and goal are to eradicate poverty in the Philippines with thousands of volunteers and donors from around the world including the USA and Tampa, Florida. Since GK USA is a 501c3 here in the USA, all donations received are Tax Deductible.
