Diverse Philippines with Globe Aware
by: Globe Aware
The Philippines is composed of more than 7000 islands encompassing diverse terrains and landscapes – from rice fields to megacities and from beaches to volcanoes. The country boasts awe-inspiring beauty and a plethora of natural resources, but also startling poverty. Our program site is in the province of Nueva Ecija, about 100 miles from Manila. The people of this community are neglected and marginalized in terms of social development. As a result, they live in poverty. Women, children, and the disabled bear the effect of massive poverty, and it is to this particularly needy population that we direct our efforts. At Globe Aware, we offer work projects geared toward: Education assistance for children with disabilities Repair/construction of houses for families of the disabled Reforestation Repair or construction of basic housing and sanitation buildings
