Filipino singer-songwriter Quest has composed Enough, the theme song for World Vision’s ‘Enough’ campaign, a global initiative aimed at ending child hunger and promoting justice, hope, and joy for children worldwide.

The Christian humanitarian organization commissioned Quest, known for his work in hip-hop and R&B, to craft a song that conveys the urgency of addressing child malnutrition. The title Enough reflects both a call to end hunger and the idea that sufficient resources exist to do so. “I wanted to say enough of what’s happening, and that we also have enough to end it,” Quest said.

A 2022 study by the World Health Organization, the United Nations Children’s Fund, and the World Bank found that 148.1 million children under five were stunted, while 45 million suffered from wasting. In the Philippines, hunger remains a pressing issue. A 2023 Ipsos survey for World Vision reported that 66 percent of Filipino adults struggle to afford food, with 35 percent uncertain where their next meal will come from.

A music video for Enough features scenes from World Vision’s work in education, health, and nutrition, along with appearances from the organization’s Philippine ambassadors and advocates, including actress Jasmine Curtis-Smith. She expressed hope that the song would reach government leaders, private groups, and NGOs, saying, “If you continuously work on it, trying to reach more communities and figuring out how to provide better access to nourishment, that’s progress in ending the problem of hunger.”

Quest said he embraced the project without hesitation, hoping to leave a lasting impact through music. “This is a good project, and I’m glad to be a part of it,” he said.

Enough is available on streaming platforms including Spotify, YouTube Music, and Apple Music, as well as on World Vision Philippines’ official social media pages.
