Eleonor Roberto

Aklan Community Coordinator

Eleonor was born on October 14, 1974, in Pingad Sabangan, Mt. Province, known for its rugged terrain and famous hanging coffins displayed in high cliffs. She later moved to Kalibo, Aklan, to be with her husband Ricarto.

Despite managing a business and being a busy mother of five children, Eleonor has volunteered with the foundation since 2015. She serves as the coordinator in Kalibo, passionately dedicated to helping children in need. She goes above and beyond, ensuring that recipients in remote areas receive their monthly supplements and health lessons, contributing significantly to their well-being and growth.
