Crisis Centers
Although there are local disaster-response agencies, the Philippines does not have an emergency response system similar to the 911 system. In response to this, we are putting up strategically positioned
Crisis Centers where emergency help may be available to any one at any given hour.
Crisis Center services and programs include first-aid treatment, volunteer home visits to the homebound elderly or disabled, short term economic assistance, medical and/or mental health patient transportation,
sexual and/or physical abuse counseling for children and adults, and volunteer opportunities.

Computer Skills Development Program
The computer and the internet are two very powerful tools that can be used for resource
gathering. Most, if not all, jobs today require some level of computer literacy. We have volunteers who
are willing to teach computer skills to individuals who wish to use the computer to their advantage.
Ultimately, our goal is to be able to put up a training facility where individuals can
train and enjoy the benefit of free computer classes.

Toy Drive
Studies have shown that toys, games, and playtime help develop in a child analytical thinking capability, team work, and creativity. A lot of these young children do not have the priveledge of having toys.
With your donations, we are aiming to distribute toys to poor children this coming Christmas season.
