For the past several years, members and families of BPCFI have grown in numbers. Some migrated to different places in Cebu, while the houses of some of the families were demolished and thus they were forced to transfer to other places. In spite of these obstacles, the relationship between these families and BPCFI stood firm through communication, especially through home and school visitation.

At the start, BPCFI operated in the sitios and barangays of Cebu City, specifically Barangay Mabolo. As the years went by, its work spread to different municipalities of Cebu and the different islands of the Visayas region. However, the bulk of its beneficiaries still come from Mabolo.

The beneficiaries of BPCFI are mainly children and youth from age 3 to 24 belonging to underprivileged and under-served communities and families. These children and youth are part of the BPCFI Educational Programs, and about 85 percent are given support through the
