Help support children living in the shadows of modern slavery — near factories in the Philippines that supply the themed entertainment and leisure industry. In my personal opinion, I have observed that workers might endure conditions resembling modern slavery. As a result, children in the region are left to struggle with access to education, healthcare, food, and shelter.

Your donation can help break the cycle of suffering and give these children a real chance to build a better future.

My grandfather, Jakob “Köbes” Angenvoort, opened his home in the Lower Rhine Valley, Germany, to people who had lost everything after World War II. Inspired by that legacy, and acting upon our own convictions, we support children in need—working to strengthen their living conditions through long-term programs focused on education, health, nutrition, and shelter.

I took on sponsorship for Katharina, an 8-year-old girl in the Philippines, and Jhon, a 10-year-old boy. I know them personally, stay in regular contact, and send care packages. I met them on the streets in 2018 and 2019 and decided to support both in their journey toward a better life.

Jhon recently completed primary school as one of the top students in his class. Katharina is now attending primary school and works hard to become a strong student as well. Our goal is to help them eventually make their own living and have a better life—but there are real challenges.

Katharina needs an eye consultation to correct her vision so both eyes can align properly. She also requires dental treatment to align her adult teeth. Jhon needs school materials, dental care, and the roof and doors of his family’s home need repairing. These are just the basics for a decent life – as well as being able to buy rice to eat.
