Project Report | Nov 27, 2020
From Relief to Resiliency; A Further 3,300 Vulnerable People Reached with Learn-At-Home Packs!

By Marko Kasic | Executive Director

 

Dear Supporter,


We hope this update report finds you and your family safe and well.

We are writing to share with you our 4th update COVID-19 Response Report that covers our core activities and efforts from August - October. A comprehensive report is attached to this note for your reference. 

Carrying on from our previous report  (August) that signalled our intent to focus on young people, FundLife has been working closely with local partners to fill gaps for highly vulnerable young people that have seen their education and access to child protection services heavily hit due to COVID-19. We have also observed, through primary research as well as mounting global evidence, that girls continue to be disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 and we continue to prioritise the protection of girls and women in both our regular programming as well as COVID-19 response operations. 

Since our last report, here are some of the key interventions and impacts we have achieved;

  • Reached over 3,300 vulnerable people with 'Safe-At-Home Packs' across Leyte and Cebu, who have been identified through local partners as highly vulnerable and living in acute and/or absolute poverty

  • Created and distributed 339 Learn-at-Home packs for young people that focus not just on keeping physically safe, but also mental wellness and building resiliency 

  • Created and Distributed 110 'Girl-Power' Packs specifically focused on adolescent girls at high-risk of educational abandonment and unplanned pregnancy due to COVID-19.

  • Conducted a follow-up and more comprehensive assessment of the mental and physical well-being of young people 

  • In conjunction with our 'Girls Got This' team, created an employment pathway project to support highly vulnerable adolescent girls (HVAG) to support girls and young women from no education or income into partial or full income. This will commence next month and will target HVAG from Metro Cebu communities. 

While it is clear the impact of COVID-19 has been sudden and serve, we are cognizant that the long-term impacts on already vulnerable groups will be harsher still. As we move into the tenth (10th) month, we remain committed to supporting young people not just in meeting their basic educational and safety needs, but also to ensuring they are supported in achieving their goals before COVID-19.

Above ensuring all young people can survive the impacts of COVID-19, we want to make sure they are able to thrive and keep their hopes, spirits and most importantly, dreams alive! 

On behalf of everyone at FundLife, we are deeply grateful for your ongoing support. Without your donations, our COVID-19 response would not be possible. 

Wishing you and those closest to you a safe and very happy remaining 2020.

Sincerely,
Marko
