The Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation, Inc. started as a Facebook post on October 30, 2010, and was created by Jay Jaboneta. As the first New Media Head of the President Communications Operations Office, he flew to a seminar on Mindanao Island, Philippines. He learned that nearby kids in the Layag-Layag area swam to and from school and then hiked half a kilometer once they reached shore. Within less than two years it had accumulated enough volunteer and community support to become a charitable foundation in the Philippines and in May 2012, it was registered with the government.
