John Lennon Jacinto is a graduating student at the Unibersidad de Manila, who is pursuing a Business Administration Course Major in Human Resource and Development. He has been a GASFI scholar since 2016 and initially supported himself through his first year of studies by serving as a cook at the Bahay Tuluyan drop off center for Kids in Manila. He dreams of pursuing additional courses in Agriculture, and would like to set up his own Foundation to help marginalized farmers.

Life for John Lennon was quite difficult given his parents separated while he was still in high school. He and his siblings were turned over to their maternal grandparents who eventually could not support them given their only means of survival was through selling rice cakes to neighbors. It was then that he, along with his brother, were turned over to the BAHAY TULUYAN Center for street kids ,where he now serves as an inspiration to other beneficiaries at the center by teaching life skills seminars, Children's Rights and reading programs for children. At GASFI, he has been actively volunteering his time by sorting donated books.
