The result was keep. There are multiple issues with this article, but in my judgement a threshold of notability is achieved. There is coverage in a regional newspaper and it seems that the organization has made an impact in their area. From WP:ORGSIG, --"When evaluating the notability of organizations or products, please consider whether they have had any significant or demonstrable effects on culture, society, entertainment, athletics, economies, history, literature, science, or education."-- This one needs improvement but should stay.

Basically unsourced. Notability dubious. bender235 (talk) 17:04, 7 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I'm seeing quite a bit of coverage from The Sun Star regarding some of their programs. Although the coverage is under "Local News" and individually each news report is rather short, the mere fact that it got covered several times should be enough to establish notability.

Keep, the article needs a major rewrite to remove all advertisement stuff. But KDF seems to be a notable organization, http://books.google.com/books?id=sVtOAQAAIAAJ p. 333 indicates that it was founded by Corazon Aquino. --Soman (talk) 12:35, 15 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Too promotionalto keep,and minimal notability. Being started by a famous person does not make something notable . DGG ( talk ) 05:13, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:ORG. the limited coverage mainly proves it exists rather than indepth establishing notability. LibStar (talk) 00:53, 3 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unfortunately I couldn't find good references from both Google Books and Google Scholar. I've checked the three major Philippine newspapers but there are no notable mentions save one which I believe isn't enough to assert notability. I've added the cite to the article if you want to check it out. They're a good organization but I have to say delete due to WP:NOBLE issues. --Lenticel ^(talk) 07:08, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
