Charity sponsoring Filipino children's education

Jamaica - Manila, The Philippines

My name is Jamaica and thanks to my sponsors in the UK, Uncle Ted and Auntie Gillian, I was able to be a Grapevine Outreach student as my father did not earn enough to support me, my 3 brothers and my mother.

As a student I was trained to be a better person not just with words but in actions. my self-esteem was increased and I was encouraged to do more.

I was a Grapevine Outreach student until I graduated from university with a BA in Human Resource Development Management.

Today I work for a large distribution company in the Philippines as a Human Resources Associate. I help with recruitment and training and I can now fight for employees’ rights and their grievances. I am proud to be one of the essential parts of the organization I am with.
