💼 What the programme involves

The PSHF opened its first office in 1987 at the time of the sugar crisis on Negros island. Many sugar workers were losing their jobs in the sugarcane plantations and their families were going hungry. The PSHF was initially set up to provide micro-loans to poor families to enable them to engage in alternative or supplementary livelihoods. Later, the scope of the PSHF was broadened to include a wide range of clients, both urban and rural, who needed start-up capital for a small business venture. The PSHF also provides medical emergency aid, housing grants and education opportunities to poor families and communities. The volunteer will primarily help and monitor and evaluate the families and students under their programs. They will do home visit/s, community profiling, possible making of project proposal/s to sponsors and work on articles for the organizational website.
