🙏❤️ A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED ADET!! ❤️🙏

On August 18, 2026, Yakap Alberta Foundation, together with our Founding President Benjie Lindo, reached out through his Facebook Live to ask for help for Adet Domingo during an incredibly difficult time.

Today, our hearts are full of gratitude as we celebrate that Adet is finally home with her family. 🇵🇭✈️

This would not have been possible without the help of the Philippine Consulate General in Calgary and the many individuals who came together to support her journey home.

This journey was made possible because of the kindness, prayers, generosity, time, and compassion of so many people.

🙏 A HUGE THANK YOU TO:

🇵🇭 Philippine Consulate General in Calgary, especially to Consul General Emma R. Sarne — thank you for your support, guidance, and assistance throughout this process.

🇵🇭 Consul Vida — thank you for your patience, dedication, support, and assistance every step of the way.

🏥 Royal Alexandra Hospital — thank you for accommodating and caring for Adet during her stay in Canada.

❤️ Macoy — thank you for your help, dedication, and unwavering support throughout this journey.

🤝 The Wetaskiwin Friends — thank you for being there for Adet when she needed help the most.

⛪ Adet’s church family — thank you for your prayers, love, encouragement, and support.

✈️ Resty from Fly Friendly Travel — thank you for your assistance with the flight arrangements.

🤝 To all the social workers and government agencies who extended their assistance, guidance, and support — maraming-maraming salamat po.

And to EVERYONE who helped Adet from Day One — whether through donations, transportation, prayers, sharing our posts, checking on her, volunteering, or simply being there — THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS. ❤️

From the moment we asked for help, our community showed us once again the true meaning of kabayan spirit and bayanihan. 🇵🇭❤️

To every person who extended a helping hand, may God return your kindness and bless you and your family many times over. 🙏✨

To Adet, we are so happy that you are finally home.
May you find comfort, strength, and healing as you recover surrounded by the people who love you. ❤️
