Join us as we create positive change together.

Our programs for 2022 focus on 3 key areas

Women

We are mothers, caregivers and teachers who play a critical role in every child’s development.

As we invest in women, we invest in our future and as we provide development opportunities that educate and empower women – we build a strong foundation for an entire generation.

Environment

Manila is the most densely populated city in the world. To counter its impact, we all need to reduce our carbon footprint and develop long term environmental programs.

Peace

Ultimately our goal is peace and balance, and we believe this starts with inner peace.

Poor living conditions lead to poor mental health. The pandemic only made this worse, and mental health programs will help build resilient people to rise from our current state.
