Hello, This is Sunny. I am a Korean living in the Mountain Province. 

In 2013, I worked as a volunteer at PACO, Manila, where I met my friend, Melanie Dawagan. She introduced me to her hometown, the wonderful community of Paracelis, Mountain Province. I was deeply touched by its people and warm welcome. 

The Mountain Province is abundant with fresh fruits, vegetables and plants. And its people have been producing naturally fermented fruit vinegar for hundreds of years. I discovered this when I started to work and live here in Paracelis.

Naturally Fermented Fruit Vinegar

Throughout the world, naturally fermented vinegar is known as a long-aged natural food that has tremendous benefits for human health. In fact, it has won 2 Nobel Prizes.

Fruit vinegar is high in acetic acid. It can kill harmful bacteria and prevent inflammation, lower blood sugar level, help you lose weight, lower cholesterol and improve heart health. Using their own fresh fruits, the people of Paracelis make ‘natural fruit cider vinegar’. 

How to make Sunny Po!

Ingredients of Sunny Po! are fresh fruits, natural fruit cider vinegar, stevia, unfiltered dark muscovado and water. With the traditionally made natural fruit cider vinegar and Korean technology, we have turned cider vinegars into delicious, healthy and energizing beverages! Sunny Po! Is a Natural Probiotics drink that is healthy and all-natural.

Sunny Po!

Sunny Po! Comes in 5 flavors. Each are made from their naturally fermented fruits vinegar.

Banana, Pineapple, Papaya, Rambutan, and Pitaya (Dragon Fruit). And now we are also planning to have one more flavor, SUHA!

This product is great for people who with digestion problems. It also helps in reducing stress! What’s more is that it is vegan and gluten free. It will be your alternative option to choose the drink for sunny day.

Aside from being great drinks, Sunny Po! Also lengthens the life of fruits that otherwise may have been thrown away if unsold. We are turning potential food waste into opportunity for food income. 

It is your best companion to a healthier lifestyle and a great and direct way to support Philippine agriculture. 

Our goal

Right now, our team (Cornerstone) is working towards building the facility and continuing production.

For a more stable and efficient production process, we really need a facility. We already started the building process, but currently we are having problem of the lack of some budget to finalize. 

We need your help to reach our goal  :)  Please be with us together, and I hope that you, be natural, be local and Sunny, Po!

♦ Project Crators

Cornerstone (Sunny & Winston) with Team HiFi

Sunny is a Korean living in Paracelis, Mountain Province with Sunny Po! Project.

She has worked as a NGO worker before. Now she dreams of being able to have a project with a community to enrich the lives of people in Paracelis. Now she is doing this whole project with her partner, Winston from Paracelis and with many community people such as individual farmers, PAFDA Banana Association, INAPINAN Farmers Association, PANAHAWE Weavers Association and NAMNAMA Farmers Association and so on. 

Since she has visited Paracelis 2013, she has talked and listened to the community people and tried to figure out the problem, but she concentrated on their ability they have had originally. That ability is coming from the power that comes from the fact that they are living with NATURE. 

Fortunately, she was able to be part of the SDG Camp on September 2018 where she met Benilde Hub of Innovation (HIFI) for Inclusive who supported us on this project through their Benilde Prize Ignition Grant. This crowdfunding campaign was also made possible with the support of help from Benilde HiFi.
