Our Causes
Our work has been made possible by the generosity of our sponsors and the dedication of our team. We are endeavoring to raise more funds so we can increase our capacity to provide the support so desperately needed.
Education
Our education support program focuses on providing means of accessing mainstream education in Primary and Secondary School levels as well as life skills at our Skills Training Center. Our beneficiaries are selected with their level of vulnerability in mind.
Housemaid Monitoring
The plight of this vulnerable group has only just featured in the international media and the Red Cross has finally declared a crisis situation. We ensure the accountability of employers and provide the girls essential support.
Victims of Abuse
From an orphaned Housemaid fired for falling pregnant after being assaulted in the employer's home to a suicidal runaway living on the streets suffering from severe physical injuries inflicted by family members, these are some of the cases we deal with on an almost daily basis!
Community Outreach
Organising meetings at the skills academy to discuss community challenges and initialisation of cooperative solutions.
Holding sessions to educate on sustainable, organic farming and methods to increase yeild.
Establishing a collaborative relationship with HelloVets to develop local animal husbandry.
