Since the end of 2019, we have been partnering with MadeInHope in Manilla, which is led by Michelle Tolentino.  Through the partnership, we have committed to support the project with min. DKK 25,000 a year, which we collect through our collections. 

In 2020, we at ÅVM succeeded in supporting the project with DKK 66,000 through several beautiful collections.

MadeInHope works to get women out of trafficking and prevent sexual abuse of women and children. At the moment they have approx. 70 women who are in their program and approx. the same number of children that they help. Here, it helps women achieve viability, self-sufficiency and the ability to raise children and ensure that their children receive education and opportunities. Over the last 4 years, they have taught over 5,000 children how to avoid and prevent sexual exploitation.

During the Covid 19 pandemic, they have repeatedly sent emergency aid out to the women and their children, to ensure their survival, education and well-being during the lockdown.
