The store is being managed by Sis. Dal Lipayon, FDM-Malabon head servant, with Sis. Apple Ortega assisting.
The store, some of whose items will come from entrepreneurial community members, aims to provide livelihood opportunities for members and generate funds for the community's various outreach activities.
