Supporting development in Manila
One of our key Community programs is the group wide support for the Kanlungan sa ER-Ma Ministry, Inc Orphanage in Manila, who are a non-government child-caring agency located in Malate, the former “red light district” of Manila Philippines. It is a refuge for children who have been exploited, neglected, abused and abandoned, as well as the victims of child trafficking.
Support for the Kanlungan Orphanage is especially powerful for us due to our Asia division in Manila, which touch all areas of our business in Australia and New Zealand: support for the Kanlungan orphanage is a cause that connects us all.
Kanlungan also holds similar values to , strives to be as self sufficient as it can be and offers the children the means to develop their talent and potential, speaking to our dedication to learning and development.
In the last two years we have sponsored 25 children, donated approximately $10,000 for projects such as facility upgrades, providing learning tools and software. The Manila team hosted Christmas for the children in 2014, and regularly volunteer at the orphanages. We have also recently provided employment for two of their graduates who work in our Transaction Services team.
