PUSO
COMMUNITY SESSIONS
is an acronym that stands for the Purposeful Unconditional Service to Others. The word "Puso" is also a tagalog word that translates into the word "heart". Every action taken by the Puso organization begins with their hearts.

When a community comes together, anything can be accomplished. By raising funds through their annual fundraising events, college outreach programs, and various campaigns – Puso is able to strategically allocate financial contributions to impoverished communities, schools, communal projects and our relief efforts around the world.
Whether the commitment to service is exemplified through mission trips, providing basic life necessities, fostering youth engagement, creative outreach or facilitating extracurricular activities, the vision is to plant the seed of faith and opportunity in human beings.
Puso invites individuals to learn about their journey as they commit and strive to change lives on a global scale.
Our team is led by ambitious millennials seeking to make a difference by using the very gifts and talents that we have been blessed with for a greaterand deeper purpose.
