Empowerment through Skills Development

Our programs focused on personal empowerment are designed to go beyond the immediate challenges of hunger and lack of access to education. Our goal is to unlock the full potential of children, youth, and women by providing them with diverse opportunities that cultivate their skills, talents, self-confidence, and values. Through these programs, participants are exposed to a wide range of educational and vocational activities, including workshops, training sessions, mentorship programs, and practical experiences. By nurturing their abilities and instilling a sense of self-belief, we empower individuals to thrive, enabling them to contribute meaningfully to their communities and lead fulfilling lives.

Special Workshops, Training, Educational Trips, and Webinars

Learning is not confined to the four walls of the classroom. To develop an individual’s full potential, we partner with different organizations and individuals to provide them with special workshops, training seminars, and educational field trips. We are looking for generous individuals, organizations, and companies who want to share their unique ideas and skill sets with the children and youth in our communities.

GROW: Giving Resources and Opportunities to Women

We are dedicated to empowering women by equipping them with skills and knowledge that can bring about positive transformations in their lives. In 2019, we launched an impactful livelihood and women empowerment program called G.R.O.W. (Giving Resources and Opportunities to Women) in Brgy. Batia, Bocaue, Bulacan. This program was specifically designed to address the pressing issues of limited job skills and livelihood opportunities within the community.

G.R.O.W. is also committed to environmental sustainability. A significant portion of the program focuses on utilizing upcycled materials to create various products. By incorporating this eco-friendly approach, G.R.O.W. not only provides income-generation avenues but also contributes to a more sustainable environment.

In addition to imparting livelihood skills, G.R.O.W. places strong emphasis on nurturing and empowering girls, ensuring that they have access to education, safety, and good health. By fostering a supportive environment, G.R.O.W. aims to inspire a generation of young women who are confident, knowledgeable, and capable of making a positive impact in their own lives and the lives of others.

G.R.O.W. believes that empowered women empower women.

Join our community of champions committed to empowering women. Get involved in our G.R.O.W. Program by reaching out to our Program Manager, Ginny, at [email protected]. Together, let’s collaborate on creating meaningful and impactful projects that uplift and empower women.

Urban Gardening Project

In partnership with AGREA and the Department of Agriculture

During the height of the community quarantines, many families are more worried that they will die from hunger, and not from the virus. The work closures have affected their sources of income and the lockdowns have limited their mobility and access to food supplies. To help the families have a sustainable food source, we distributed urban gardening kits. In partnership with AGREA Foundation, 200 families in Naic, Cavite received grow-at-home kits that include vegetable seeds and other gardening tools. We also partnered with the Department of Agriculture (Agriculture Training Institute) to provide 600 urban gardening kits for the families in Bocaue, Bulacan, and Naic, Cavite. These partnerships empowered the families to grow their own food and to have food security even in the midst of the pandemic.
