FILIA PROJECT

“Women helping women“

This project began when two girls in the Philippines asked our religious sisters for help to “escape from the temptation of prostitution“.

¡Now we are helping hundreds of girls and youth!

What is the Filia Project ?

“Women helping women”

They are homes that protect girls, adolescents, and youth who have been abandoned, some of who also are victims of abuse, or find themselves in situations of moral danger. We seek to offer all of them an atmosphere where they can live, develop their abilities, feel protected and live without fear so that in the future they can realize their ideals.

It is an opportunity to make a great positive impact on yourself and on others and to be a strong force to achieve an increase in the dignity and development of the human person. This is what makes a difference !!!

Our activities

During the week, girls and students attend schools and universities; in the afternoon they have a rest time and then they do their homework like in a family; during vacation time they participate in camps, training days, popular mission.

But we can achieve all of this with the collaboration of people who defend and care about the dignity of women.

Our Locations

With your help we can provide a home to girls, youth, and university students.

Syria-Aleppo

Youth living through a cruel war, many of whom have been left alone, without family, but want to move forward and achieve their dreams. With your help, we can make it happen!

Albania - Tirana

Given that these women have less access to education, we have two houses in Tirana and Troshan for girls and youth in order to give them the possibility to be educated at all levels (primary, secondary, university).

Tunisia

With your help, we can move forward with a residence for young girls coming from Africa, who we help to continue their studies in a familiar environment.

Philippines-Caloocan

Due to great poverty, many girls are abandoned or live on the streets. We see them and with your help can give them a home and a good family.

Argentina - Mendoza

These young girls and adolescents come from families with many difficulties. Many of these girls are abandoned, but we, with your help, give them the opportunity to study and attain a hopeful future.

Perú - Cotahuasi - Chuquibamba - Cuzco - Iquitos

All of the girls who we help come from a mountainous region where they have to walk for 4 hours each day in order to study. On the road they have suffered assault, abuses, have disappeared, etc. But with your help, now, these girls can live with us during the week so they can study with regularity, a reality that favors a future of fulfilled dreams.

Papúa New Guinea - Vánimo

When they are still very young, women are sold or traded like animals. For this reason, we take them in, help them to study, and protect them until they can become independent.
