Core offering

ANCOP (ANswering the Cry of the Poor) is a non-profit foundation that delivers social welfare programs to poor families, including one-on-one educational sponsorships for elementary through college students, technical-vocational training, community housing construction, livelihood training, mobile health clinic services, and calamity/disaster response. Programs are delivered in the Philippines and across 36 countries through a global CFC volunteer and donor network.

Product overview

ANCOP (ANswering the Cry of the Poor) is a non-profit foundation operating as a unified portfolio of social development programs rather than a single product. The organization offers four interconnected core program areas: Education (ESP, Cornerstone, TVET), Community Development (Shelter, Livelihood, Health), Calamity & Disaster Response, and the Wellness on Wheels mobile clinic. These programs work together to provide holistic support to poor families, with education and shelter forming the primary pillars while livelihood training and health services provide complementary support. The flagship Educational Sponsorship Program connects individual donors with sponsored students, while TVET provides vocational training in partnership with Don Bosco and TESDA. ANCOP Global Walk serves as the primary annual fundraising campaign supporting these programs.
