A True Story of Self Help in Alona Beach

A True Story of Self Help in Alona Beach

A True Story of Self Help in Alona Beach. A wonderful TRUE story of a leper beggar turned businessman! In Alona Beach, Panglao, Bohol, Philippines.




The year was 2012 i met a leper in Alona Beach scruffy and smelly with tattered clothing, obviously poor and homeless, he presented a card to me that said..IM A LEPER please make a donation to me?... The resort owners forbid him to solicit their guests...and the guards would kindly send him on his way. :(

Alona Beach Panglao Island Bohol Philippines


That was then when I realized, WOW, this guy could make a lot of money here selling sunglasses, slippers, and leather belts to the foreigners here, he doesn't have a life like this!!


So I sat him down at Lost Horizon Beach Dive Resort and explained to him this simple concept that could change his life Well his life changed forever! Well, he did change his life. Due to our little (45-minute chat) talking about the huge opportunity to make money, while providing a good service to our guests here in Alona Beach, Bohol. The Philippines...

He embraced the idea and now 4 years later, here he is making enough money to buy new clothes, and an apartment and have a good life. he looks great and he's Proud of what he has accomplished.

If you happen to see him in Alona Beach...please buy something from the great person that decided to change his life...


This is a real-life story that he will be happy to share with you...and me as well...may God bless this man!


You will see him if you come to visit here...please support him by buying sunglasses or slippers or maybe a belt...


Sincerely, InfoBohol...

Considered one of the world’s smallest primates; the oldest mammal now inhabiting the earth and the oldest surviving member of the primate group, the Philippine Tarsier is endemic to the Philippine islands. The forests of the Philippines nurture one of the world’s smallest primates. However, years of rapid forest destruction and poaching have posed a very serious condition to this species. Seventy percent of the country’s original forests have been destroyed. With these forests gone, so will the home of the tarsiers. In the hills, of Corella, where tarsiers were once abundant, there are only about, 1,000 tarsiers left.
