San Jose, ANTIQUE--“Let’s Care Foundation have chosen Antique to be the beneficiary of the program because there is no shelter here which houses the victims of abuses in a long term basis,” said Erna Vinkers, the Founder and Executive Director of the Let’s Care Foundation.
According to Vinkers the center named as “Let’s Care Home for the Girls” will operate this first week of May. The center will house the girls who are victims of sexually, emotionally or physically abused, the neglected and the maltreated girls in the province.
“In this home the girls will find a safe haven, they will be rehabilitated and offered activities and education so they can grow up into conscious, independent and happy people,” added Vinkers.
“The construction of the house and the hiring of the staff who will man the center are on-going. We need social workers and a driver. Interested applicants may visit the office at Brgy. 4, San Jose, near the Brgy. 4 Day Care Center,” she further.
The Municipal government of San Jose through Mayor Rony Molina has allowed the foundation to use the lot owned by the Municipal Government in Brgy. 4 free from lease for 20 years.
The Let’s Care is a non-profit organization founded in The Netherland that is dedicated to creating a better world for maltreated, abused and neglected girls. Maltreated and abused girls is their most priority, the foundation look after and treat for their traumas under professional and caring supervision with a view to building a good life. Let’s Care Foundation’s attention is also focus on school and study for the girls to obtain a decent place in society and break out from the vicious (poverty) circle.
