Our partner in the Philippines, Dynamic Teen Company (DTC) has a new project called "Mind Your Rights". Mind Your RIGHTS is an advocacy to make children aware of their rights: rights for an education, healthcare, and simply a right to live.
My Right to Life, a project under Mind Your Rights, is helping children and families who were displaced by the recent typhoons. They are now living in public/government hospitals. They have very limited or no sources of income and they are critically and badly needing help in order to survive. Not only they need financial support, but they and their families and caregivers also need emotional, educational, spiritual and social support.
Project Pearls is gearing its support and fundraising efforts to help My Right to Life project; we would like to somehow relieve these children and families with their emotional and physical distress. Project Pearls goal is to give out care packages as Christmas gifts to these children and their families that would be distributed on Christmas Day itself.
Please help us in helpinbg these children and their families who are very down with their luck and lives. We welcome any support from you!
