Support community-led actions that change lives - the overarching theme of Abot-Kamay Community Solidarity Fund with its 32 initially supported community-led actions in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao islands in the Philippines. Can you imagine if we have more community-led actions in critical and strategic areas of the country? This builds and expands the organizations' assets, agency, and trust to transform their communities and society.
In a climate-vulnerable archipelagic nation like the Philippines, community-based organizations are the unsung heroes. They tirelessly address urgent survival needs, champion rights, and sound the alarm for evacuations. Despite their vital role, they often remain unseen by large funding organizations. These grassroots heroes are the lifeline for the most vulnerable. They reshape the landscape of humanitarian, development, and peace.
The Abot-Kamay Community Solidarity Fund supports matching resources for the actions that people's organizations can do at the grassroots level. When you support the Fund, your donation will go a long way in supporting various people's organizations in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao to continue empowering communities and transforming the system to better the situation of the affected people and communities.
Communities and people's organizations are empowered to change their communities and localities positively. This impacts individuals in the organizations and their families. These also radiate to other communities and localities, creating a groundswell of solidarity and support for one another, thereby giving way to transforming the current system and giving birth to an emergent system owned and led by people in the communities.
