Off the Streets and Into Self-Reliance - Philippines

Devon Rasmussen-Philippines CARE Travel Award Report-2010 doc 3b422067For many women without education or a trade in the Philippines, the sex trade is often the path of desperation that is taken in order that their children can be fed and clothed.

A volunteer supported by C.A.R.E. traveled to Cebu City in the Visayas to work on the first construction stages of a basic trade school designed for women at risk. The school has also been designed to incorporate a day care for the womens' young children and the project will form a good model for other schools to be developed to improve the lives of Philippine women.
