Birthday present: two kids to school! |
|
ANAK has received donations from the Rotary Rotterdam Bernisse on a regular basis. This year ANAK received a generous donation of 1000 euro to support the children in the Philippines.
One of our appreciated contacts and sponsors, is mr. Pleun van Toledo from Oostvoorne. In the honour of his 70th birthday he asked his guests to contribute to ANAK. His guests were so generous that their support will enable ANAK to send 2 kids to school for a full year! This drawing was also a gift from one of his friends.
ANAK sincerely appreciates these generous and warm gestures. We would like to take the opportunity to thank Mr van Toledo for his compassion for the children in the Philippines.

It seems like government policy. The urban slums are thorns in the flesh of the city council. Slums should be fenced like they do in Manila or demolished. The urban poor are relocated to the outskirts of the city, no longer visible and unfortunately far away from income generating opportunities. Many of our ANAK scholars have their home in one of the threatened slum areas in Bacolod, moreover it is the middle of exams...
Next to ANAK's office is an urban slum where many scholars are living. This area has turned into a demolition area. We are passing a long dark corridor and when we enter the are we can only witness the sad remains of a slum that was home to 65 families or more than 400 people, many of them small children.... |

The schoolyear has come to an end in the Philippines. ANAK is very proud of its scholars. Every one of them worked really hard and we have to say goodbye to a few of them as they graduated succesfully. Also we are very proud of our high school graduates as most of them will proceed to college.
Joy Lantoria (21 yrs old) graduated in her teaching course and made it to the Dean's list. This determined lady has already succeeded in finding a job as a teacher at the Korean Language School. Congrats to you all!

A home for abandoned children |
|
Universal rights of children are food, shelter and love. Unfortunately lots of children in the Philippines do not have access to basic needs. Home of Hope is a home for abandoned children. Some children have no parents anymore, others have parents who can no longer take care of them due to poverty, addiction or imprisonment.
Every single person who visits Home of Hope, leaves with a knot in the stomach. One feels like moving heaven and earth to improve the situation of children in Home of Hope. One wants to adopt and give love, food and shelter to these beautiful but damaged children. But most of all one will feel helpless. Our chairman Louis did feel helpless but learnt that we can all contribute a little ourselves to improve the situation of children in the Philippines.

Chairman of ANAK Netherlands flies off to the Philippines for three months......
I immediately feel at home again in the Philippines. On January the 18th I returned to the Philippines. It was a fairly cool (24 degrees C) and cloudy day. After settling into my favorite hotel in the Mabini area, I immerse myself into the chaos of Manila. A brewed coffee and the Philippine Star on a little terrace............ |
