Project feature - A Girl's Dream Life

Project Chairman: Elle Beliso Ranas

In a perfect world, all young girls would be loved, cared for and nurtured by their families. However, many young women suffer abuse and abandonment, and are left to fend for themselves. In response to the plight of young women in the community, Soroptimists in Lucena City, Philippines, came to the aid of girls living in Girl's Crisis Center DSWD, Zaballero Subdivision, Lucena City.

The club project benefited 20 young girls, ages 3 to 14, who were abandoned by their parents. Many of the girls were homeless and begging on the streets, while others were victims of physical and sexual abuse. In order to facilitate recovery and rehabilitation, the club refurbished household furniture, and purchased new mattresses, bedding, clothing, hygiene supplies and computers for the facility. The club also helped fund the salary of an additional social worker for the center.

This project is in cooperation of Soroptimist Club Grant from Soroptimist International of the Americas.

The project “improved girls' social and economic status and quality of life, and gave the girls a greater feeling of being loved and cared for.”
